Do we still have aircraft capable of dropping atomic weapons?
There is no point these days. We also don't have any air-drop left. WE177 as it was called has now been decommissioned.

We own the Royal Mint, just print more money.....rolleyes
Sadly, this is not correct. The Bank of England Bank Note printing facility is owned by a PLC listed on the London Stock Exchange, rather than owned by the country.
