An idealized Royal Navy force structure

What would an ideal Royal Navy look like if cost and time were no object?

Three carriers, six LHDs, nine balanced escort groups, worldwide patrol forces, submarines, and stronger auxiliaries.

The sketch proposes three Queen Elizabeth-class carriers, six aviation-capable LHDs, eighteen Type 45-style destroyers, and twenty-seven Type 26 frigates. Nine escort groups would each combine two air-defence destroyers and three anti-submarine frigates, giving every carrier or amphibious group a balanced screen. Type 31 frigates and River-class ships would handle worldwide presence missions, while a larger submarine force supplied additional striking and sea-denial power. This front-line fleet would be unusable without a correspondingly expanded Royal Fleet Auxiliary to sustain it.
