1) British kit: will the British nuclear powered aircarft carrier be included?

also will the apache be available to Brits as Westland are involved in assembly?

2) Is the FARP crew a forward arming and refueling point for attack helicopters? If so great! But they should be represented by transport not leg infantry, most appropriate would be a fuel truck.
FARP's are an important asset so they are trianed in area defence and doctrine would advocate an attatched infantry company so that this should be represented with a some (low) defensive values.

Thanks for the links, there will be future British carriers but I haven't decided on the stats yet. Obviously, I can change anything and just say they changed their minds by 2010 :)

As for the FARP crew, I do already have a note to change it's picture but haven't had the time to hunt down the model I want. A few of the unit pictures are still place holders.
