Which countries might buy instead of building their own carriers?

Beyond India, which navies might join an eight-ship Invincible production program?

Brazil is a possible customer, but France, Spain, and Italy are more likely to build their own carriers while still buying Harriers or borrowing design ideas.

India remains the clearest additional buyer, with Brazil as a possible regional-power customer. The ship is still expensive and requires commitment to the associated Sea Harrier system, which limits the market. France is expected to retain its independent carrier path, while Spain and Italy are more likely to build national ships and use Harriers aboard them. Some foreign designs might become larger after observing an enlarged Invincible without becoming direct copies. Aircraft-program influence could spread farther than sales of the British hull.
