Sir, Britain must maintain significant maritime Forces to enact its expeditionary, or maritime, strategy (“Carriers versus tanks: sea commanders battle for resources”, Feb 2). It would be foolish to suppose that future conflicts will always be similar to the Afghanistan experience. It is equally foolish for army officers and the Conservative Party to assume that we will only ever have to fight irregular opponents. A quick glance at any naval reference book illustrates that the potential threat from an Iran or a Russia would require not only aircraft carriers but also escort vessels to defeat their air assets, submarines and surface warships. Look at the naval building programmes and aspirations of China and Russia. Gary Blackburn
