Sminkey, as you said;

If something like the transport cruise missile carrier/launched happens why the hell should it be a US plane!

There's no reason why...... Whether any additional dedicated aircraft are acquired for the role remains to be seen, but then whod have thought we'd ever commission a 'proper' aircraft carrier after 1978?

- Yeah, while I'm daydreaming this one up how about a fleet of 20 - 25 A380's with a multi-role capacity?

Transport, tanker, elint and long range missile launcher depending on the needs?

Wow, A380's in RAF livery, that'd be pretty cool.

I could not give a damn who had the very first jet. We are allies. Remember?

Yes we are allies but why do you not care? If it was an American discovery I reckon you would care very much

Don't bet at the track because your reckoning is off. My flag-waving, nationalistic ego is not very big. I believe in giving credit where credit is due.
