The warships were created to house the Mark 41 Vertical Launching System installed in their bows, enabling them to launch cruise missiles, but are instead accommodating treadmills.

Fuck me runnin'.....What a pathetic nation.
This is why I don't give two shits about the Uke conflict....The Brits can't afford StL cruise missiles and the Squareheads can't produce but two Leopard IIs a month.....They are damn good at virtue signaling with their hands held out though.
