Cannot sail and soon no missiles due to budget cuts.
Meanwhile the Chinese and Russians have missiles.

Royal Navy surface warfare tactics, circa 2018 (after Harpoon anti-ship missiles are retired):

1) Form battle line (assuming ships can maintain power)

2) Engage with deck gun

3) Maneuver to suck enemy into CIWS range; engage with anti-missile guns

4) Distribute small arms and cutlasses

5) Prepare to board!

6) Employ damage control and abandon ship procedures
