  • The Queen Elizabeth class is a class of two aircraft carriers of the United Kingdom's Royal Navy which are the central components of the UK Carrier Strike Group.
    The vessels, described as "supercarriers" by the media, legislators and sometimes by the Royal Navy,displace approximately 65,000 tonnes (64,000 long tons; 72,000 short tons) each, almost three times the displacement of its predecessor, the Invincible class.

    The British have always been trend setters when it comes to aircraft carrier flight deck layout. So nice that the British and US are such close allies who seamlessly share a substantial chunk of their military technologies and technology developments

    HMS Queen Elizabeth and Prince of Wales can hold up to 72 aircraft. But unfortunately the UK government is so tight that they only state 32 aircraft. The aircraft carriers only has 16 on bord mostly

    The Queen Elizabeth Class Aircraft Carriers were built for the F35 , they were originally built to have Catobar and apparently that maybe done on it's first refurbishment, the carriers can take fully loaded 45 F35b , and up to 12 Apache, 12 chinooks, not to mention its complement of Merlin helicopters. I expect the Catobar to be fitted so more aircraft can be utilised. Thank You To Our American Cousins for The First deployment .

    A pair of very expensive, over budget White Elephants. The RN recently de-commissioned two ships because they couldn’t find enough sailors to crew them. The knock-on effect is there aren’t enough ships available to form an effective Carrier Battle Fleet. Neither carrier is going to sail anywhere without its protective escorts. Our servicemen and women have been let down badly by our incompetent Tory government.

    "Invisible class carriers"... new stealth technology, perhaps?

    Being a tier one contractor on the F-35's, we should be receiving them faster than we are!

    Why The Queen Elizabeth Class Carrier Is So Powerful. Is this a joke? 🤷‍♂

    Powerful ! means Naval Integrated Fire Control-Counter Air (NIFC-CA). making it one massive over the horizon threat that can see beyond its own ships sensors

    Yes, it’s “undoubtfully” a great ship.

    Those "American aircraft" are actually 15%-20% (depending on which exact model) British technology & British made. Much of the technology that went into the international design of those aircraft was what was planned for a speculative Harrier III, eventually cancelled in favour of the JSF program.

    Loved the reference to the Invisible class in the last moments of the film! I do wish narrators would stop saying The HMS - no The please!

  • @craigsimons817

    These ship’s inability to embark a fixed wing AWACS platform coupled with the absence of a helicopter based AEW (Crows Nest) leaves them extremely vulnerable in a real shooting war against a capable enemy.

    Every F35 made is 15% to 20% British Engineered.

    … when they work. Which mostly they don’t.
