Since Spanish Soil in Africa is under threat of Invasions that can be seen off by a handful of commandos landed by an inflatable boat dropped off by a fast patrol boat?
Indeed, given the number of tiny African enclaves that Spain claims sovereignty over, the "all the eggs in one basket" approach makes even less sense. A swarm of missile boats with the ability to drop off commando teams would be a far more effective way of maintaining control of a half dozen enclaves on the edges of Morocco. I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.
In the Spanish case, I cannot imagine any strategic plan or future vision, other than business/tradition as usual, to have that kind of ship. I hope we can outgrow those 20th century manias soon. Our knowledge has surpassed our wisdom. -Charu Saxena.
