    Joined my first ship in Liverpool and 2 others to follow ! never forgotten as a young man sailing out and around to London and off on voyage to New Zealand with a full cargo and number 2 hold filled with ammuntion for the NZ defence force. My first time home to Auckland having been away 3 years. Home is the sailor home from the sea said my Dad! 40 years in the RN/RNZN for Dad and 6 years of war included. Happy days at sea and we returned to Liverpool to pay off, the one and only time i paid off there a good run ashore in the city, the old docks will all be gone now but that is progress for you.

      I guess either this trip wasn't good enough to show off even one aircraft on an aircraft carrier, on a special town visit , or maybe the UK only owns a very small number of F35s that have to be shared between the Royal Navy and the RAF, so little that we unfortunately don't have enough to even fully compliment one carrier without borrowing additional F35s from America. We have a great Navy, but if you don't have the tools to do the job, it'll just adds more controversy to the already damaged reputation of these beautiful carriers.

      The UK owns 37 operational F-35s (after 1 crashed). That will rise to 40 early in 2025. They are not 'shared' the are jointly operated as the Harrier Strike Force operated. We paid for 48 but Biden has been playing stupid politics as he hates the UK. Him being 'Irish'! we have funded a further tranche of 30 F-35s.
      Aircraft numbers and types on board are decided by the exercise or operation. But we could put 3 Squadrons of F-35s on a carrier if needed. The last time US aircraft were assigned to a carrier (apart from cross deck certification) was in 2021 when 8 were attached. This is a rather tired old Chestnut you people re still peddling.

So their operational ability is as good as it gets. Yes yes yes I know PoW had a coupling fail but it was fixed while she was upgraded. And those three carriers weren't exactly bedrocks of reliability. So to say the "carriers were highly efficient and never let us down" when the first one had a failed GT on its way down South is a bit contradictory.

    Currently the UK has received 34 F35s in total between the RAF and RN. Each of the two aircraft carriers support thirty-six F-35s and four helicopters, but with a theoretical surge capacity of up to 72 aircraft. So the RN is wasting tax payer money sailing the aircraft carriers when they cannot be staffed by a full complement of aircraft.

    • @Orbital_Inclination

      Training the ships crew is not time wasted. The air wing are doing their own work-up on the other carrier, as this one shakes down any mechanical snags before CSG25 next year.
      The theoretical capacity is exactly that, theoretical. Only the US ever deploy with that kind of air wing. It also doesn't take into account deck and hangar space being used for other aircraft or storage.
      The French, probably a good comparison to the UK in this regard, usually embark between 15-25 jets on actual ops, and less for training or exercises.

    The most important question is whether this carrier is equipped with a full squadron of aircraft and if so, how many F-35Bs are aboard.
    AFAIK, only 33 have been delivered so far...

      No one outside a small group in the navy higher ups and the government really knows the answer to that question. That information will always be kept secret. They don't want to advertise the aircraft carrier's capabilities to the enemies that are always watching and spying.

      ​@@GonzoTehGreatthey've had aircraft embarked previously, they just don't need them for this training period. The ship has been in normal refit and maintenance recently so this kind of shake-down is standard stuff.

      @shsh-he5qg thats a basic need when a problem occurs. There's a big difference between getting towed on a single occasion when a failure occurs and having to be permanently escorted by a tug boat

      Exactly right. No Specsavers for you Soft Lad. Because no carrier has fixed wing aircraft on board for home port visits.
