one or two comments.

(a) it looks pretty cool. looks suitably inhomogenous to be real!

(b) you seem to have used american names, with just one or two
exceptions!
surely you can spare a battlegroup or two to be called "Prince of Wales"
or "Royal Oak"?

is that common? i note the NRE have destroyer leaders. is this how
current
navies operate, an/or is there a good reason for this pattern? i'll
admit
that my current fleet has two "independant squadrons" of CL + 2FF, but
that's because i only have two CL and four FF and can't fit them in
anywhere else ...
