India, actually.
India also uses VTOL carriers rather than conventional carriers. There
is
some doubt the Indian carriers would be much use operationally.
Yes but I think India might have a 50-50 chance of getting an
operational
'true' carrier before the PRC. But the Navy would have to sink a ton
of their
resources into it to achieve that. And I think they aren't really all
that
interested in a CVN/CVA.
