Go forward, Great-Britain! Long live the Nato! Long live freedom! Down with all dictatorships and terrorists all around the world! Best wishes from Germany!
Thank you and sincere best wishes to you and our German friends. Although there are many of us in the UK (me included) who voted for Brexit; please do not confuse this with our admiration for your country and our resolute commitment to NATO.
HMS Queen Elizabeth will be away for 28 weeks as part of the carrier strike group. You might be able to catch HMS Prince of Wales coming and going for her certifications and exercises, PoW returned on Wednesday.
Good luck to the carrier strike group, respect to the USA for trusting the Royal navy with there F35S & marines onboard HMS QE, and much thanks & appreciation for every other ship escorting her, safe journey.

I don’t think that’s a lightning . Lightning’s aren’t VTOL. And the lightning was an interceptor that served during the 1960s and 70s and was retired in the 80s
Thank you for your friendly and appreciative comment. Hardware is all well and good, but the real strength of any armed forces lie in experience, training, morale and co-operation. I'm certain this deployment will serve to make our alliance stronger than ever.
Very interesting. what is amazing if you look close is how FAST the movements are - you an see tiny adjustments - the nozzle assembly moves MUCH faster then one thinks. A small gust of wind - and it pivots left, right - computers are keeping the jet balanced. The pilot can actually let go of the control stick - it will hover on the spot 100% automatic.
@@MetaView7 But a catapult takes 2 minutes (120 seconds) to launch a jet - a ramp takes 15 seconds. That is 8 times the launch rate of a catapult. Here is a catapult hookup and launch - it takes a very long time to launch a jet with a catapult. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cWOpDItw1iI.html time = 120 seconds. 4 Harriers take off - 40 seconds: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fb7ZlZBDpEQ.html
While I personally prefer the F35b to the C, the vertical landing really does take a lot longer. I guess that's why the US bought more C's, but the ability to take off and land almost anywhere is amazing. But that's also why the B version costs the most haha.
@@MetaView7 "that's why turkey ditched it" And the trolling continues. Turkey was kicked out of the program. Oh Noooo Canada and Taiwan are too poor to afford it. I guess just because Taiwan and Canada can't afford them Israel, Japan, South Korea, Poland, Belgium,UAE,UK, Singapore and so on use them mean nothing. The F35 can track ballistic missiles, use its DAS to see real time ground targets, is stealth, has the most powerful fighter engine ever built, and cost less then 4th gen fighters. The F35a cost less then 80 million which is less then the Su35, Eurofighter, etc. If you continue to troll you will be blocked, i don't deal with it.
They'd need some conversion work, those ships were intended for Harriers after all which are considerably smaller lighter aircraft; certainly more than possible though and I understand the Aussie government's already expressed interest in the F35
@@MetaView7 we just spent $250 billion on our military, has nothing to do if we can afford it, it’s all man power, we don’t have many Australian defence force members like we used to
@@1IbramGaunt I serve on Canberra, which is one of the LHDs my co reckons once there is a massive interest for the navy, army etc they most likely would upgrade the flight deck etc etc, if anything we need more aircraft carriers like we used to
I would say mostly no do to them not being used on our super carriers in the US(albeit in some cases im sure they would be) we use them on our amphibious assault ships which are light-carriers, and having less width(granted our light carriers are almost the QE size, they are still smaller), id assume they would just use traditional VTOL. But in theory they could use it. But if the flight deck is more crowded it creates more risk of crashing into other jets since you have no recovery system, this is why i tend to think they wouldn't do it, unless in a real war scenario and needing to get as many sorties out/in as quick as possible.
@@sshep86 Someones UK pride got hurt. My statement was "(granted our light carriers are almost the QE size, they are still smaller), id assume they would just use traditional VTOL. But in theory they could use it. But if the flight deck is more crowded it" The American class is 844 feet in length and 106 in beam. The Wasp class is 843 and 104 in beam. The QE class is 920 feet and 240 feet in beam. So as I stated above, they are smaller and more crowded, hence why I don't think they will do rolling landings. You then act like im trying to call them bigger or something, even though I called the light-carriers smaller. They are similar in size, and yes they are near in tonnage. The American class is about 15k tons less. A big difference would be the Ford class to QE class which is a 40k ton difference. Don't let your pride get in the way of someone just trying to answer a question. Have a good one.
@@ThatCarGuy How is fact checking on a military channel/forum anything to do with pride being hurt? But as predicted, the answer is none of them. CHeers
Could be US aircraft aboard at least for awhile or the time being ..the UK is ordering 42-48 F 35Bs for by this yr(have 21 now),or next,,& have 60 or 80 as planned purchases at this point ..
2025 is about when the UK will be able to put a good strength carrier alone. It also around then the F35B will be getting Meteor and Spear 3. We may still work together after but it will be more of a choice than a necessity.
@@davidhouseman4328 sounds about right, I read the 60,or 80 purchases will be in by 2023 time frame, round 2 in other words. so given a yr or 2 in get them all in and fully operational ..
@@mikeneufield2855 48 is the 2025 level, though it could be slightly higher. Past that is just a decision to be taken. It will be more than 48, likely less than 138 but where it will land only the future will tell.
@@1IbramGaunt the Italians, and I think, the Spanish still use them. I was going to suggest the RAF or Royal Navy buy them but with this new direction the UK MOD are taking they wouldn’t need them. Especially not with ‘TEMPEST’!!! Maybe V/STOL drones-they’ve still got 4 years or more with USMC but they are most likely desert bound with a make over of white shrink wrap.
@@PenDragonsPig oh it'd be fantastic to have British Harriers on British carriers again don't get me wrong, my only problem with it is that it's likely gonna be our own bloody planes being bought back that we should've never sold in the first place
@@steven2809 I believe we used first generation Harriers in the Falklands War and the USMC has flipped to Harrier II since then some of which were built in UK. Go on google earth and you’ll see some Harriers on RNAS Predannack- used for fire training I guess.
Wait so the USMC has a larger F35B presence than the RN on a RN vessel. Lockheed clearly needs to speed up deliveries. This just isn't right. Next time we need to purchase from Amazon instead, never have I ever had problems with them🤣 Edit: some of you had to have known that this was a joke. I even suspected there may be some thick heads and so put 🤣 on the initial post. So no need to make this something its not. At the end of the day we can all hope there won't be any need to use these aircraft. Plus the UK and US are allies so no need to get wound up.
As with any new aircraft platform the early build models do not have full capability. We have done the sensible thing and taking later build slots so they do not need millions spent in upgrades later down the line.
@@jameshammonds4687 This is correct - look close at the models on the decks - note the lack of markings and speed tape on the backs and top of the jets. These are the new fresh out of the box later gen models - including the better stealth's coatings. I think they also look much nicer and cleaner.
@Arthur Humphreys I suspect this is due to F35 A model production being higher right now. But, the F35's are coming to Britain - I don't know the delivery rate.
Our nations (U.S. + U.K.) have finished the past two world wars together. I guess we (the U.S.) will be ready to help out earlier on than the last two times.
Different political landscape then. The US was in 'building mode' at the time and geography meant it could be ignored for a while. It may have lasted 5 more years if you hadn't come over.

@@MetaView7 none actually so far, since like us they can produce their own and don't really need those? I'm sure we CAN send vaccines themselves too if the Indians ask for them however.

That's an interesting thought .. its ,almost,as big as the Australian Canberra class ships,which the Australian govt was considering to operate the F 35s . its primarily or is designed as a helicopter carrier, but .. at very least it'd be an interesting idea , for cross decking ..never hurts to have options
@@Klliansimabras yes as interoperability with the Royal Navy, or the US Navy /Marine Corps with the Wasp and America class ships , or the Italians too even , planning purchasing F 35s to operate aboard their carrier .. any of that would be an interesting and nice , or further addition to French , and Allied capability ..
I see they was training with french navy too bring more migrants too the uk they are taking all the planes off so they can get more on,I hope they can get up the Thames so when it kicks off in London they can help
What? Something like 70% of the camera views of the F-35s in this video were the British ones. Look for the grey roundel under the cockpit canopy, the American ones have the US roundel instead.
Very impressive progress of the RN integrating USMC F35's on exercise towards the far east. But i cant help cringing as a rtd RN officer at the clichéd statements from the RN Capt. and the address from the flag officer. Compared to the relaxed matter-of-fact statement from the US officer, the stiff pre-programmed rhetoric of the RN officers does the capability an injustice. To quote with pride Portugal as a country with 3 NATO HQs is a classic example of political opportunism and the irrelevance of these HQs contribution.
In fairness, I think there’s a lot more pressure on the RN crew. While some of the planes are USMC, the goal of the mission is to show that the Royal Navy is a major force on the seas.
@@Akm72 F-35B carrying buddy tanks ? A helicopter is too slow/risky and the Osprey can only take off vertically from QE. That means small load weights. Like proper AWACS capability, you need catapults and traps, even if you use a ski jump as well. It's going to be an expensive modification to take useful sized drones as well.
Putin is laughing at you last time biden made an incendiary remark, Putin put him in his place, and biden has not dared to utter a bad word since. FYI, putin couldn't care less about your half aass carrier and borrowed jets. russia has better things to do (eg trade with china). the western media have brainwashed you. they make you think russia is an evil empire, while russian are just ordinary people trying to raise a family and have good food with friends. only tyrants want to build war machines.
@@MetaView7 what, you mean war machines like the Shandong? 🙂 As for Putin and Russia tell that whole "not an evil empire" nonsense to the next Ukrainian you see, I'm sure his response will be most hospitable lol
@@MetaView7 also, again the jets are either all British or all American, not "borrowed", and that quote "half-assed carrier" is still superior to anything China or Russia has ever put to sea in history
One of these days you may be proved very wrong about that. Remember they might be few in number but they're also one of the most advanced and capable 5th-generation stealth-fighters on the planet right now
@@mrtappyasmr7702 Maybe so but that doesn't mean they're nearly as big a threat as they think they are just because of that, sheer numbers are far from everything. I'd back just ONE really capable, really well-made warship or jet-fighter with the latest technology, something actually dependable and reliable while still advanced (and I mean GENUINELY advanced not just made to look like it is) and crewed by highly-trained highly-experienced professionals, over 20 crappy cheap Chinese knock-offs of the same thing that're crewed by half-starved brainwashed teenagers with no real experience, any day of the week. That and we have a LOT of bullets & missiles 😉
@@1IbramGaunt I hope you're right. It's just I never see the military comment about Chinese construction ability. They build buildings and equipment at an alarming rate, while it's not as good it's still dangerous. I also think we need to do more against hypersonic missiles, Putin's plan is to persue these carries and throw an overwhelming number of missiles to take it down.
@@trankt54155 the money originally intended FOR that will have been re-assigned to something else? Don't know if you've noticed but Britain's paying for a LOT of stuff right now, we've got new frigates and submarines being built as we speak, a new destroyer-class on the drawing-board too, along with new AFV's and upgraded tanks for the Army, AND a 6th-generation fighter project for the RAF getting underway
Why is it 'cringy' to simply do certain stuff the same way they've very successfully been doing for years, especially given half the guys he's in charge of right now ARE Americans? and the fact we've been out of the carrier game for quite a while ourselves and are practically starting over from scratch? Surely just will make working with them simpler and easier if the Brits talk more like they do. And isn't CAG short FOR "Commander Air Group" anyway?
@@1IbramGaunt It’s cringe because we always seem to change to fit the cool-sounding American job title. Or add bits of bling like the SSBN badges or wearing medals on uniforms that didn’t traditionally have them. The US do things a certain way, and that’s great, more power to them. But we don’t have to slavishly change over all our stuff all the time. Like police Scenes of Crime Officers, who now seem to be called CSI, presumably to make their job seem cooler.
@@ProfessorPesca I agree that we shouldn't ever lose sight of who we are or lose our identity trying to be cool and more American-ish, I'm just saying that in this particular case it makes sense for us to call them that ourselves too for the reasons stated above
Our capabilities, what are you on mate? We have 8 of our own fighters and 4 attact helicopters. That's not a great capability!. It just shows how low on numbers we really are. I'm fed up with this proud attitude the Royal Navy have about the carrier but in my opinion the carrier is not ready with such low numbers of our own aircraft. If it weren't for the Americans who has more fighters on OUR own carrier than we do. If it weren't for them QE wouldn't be on her deployment now. Yes this should be a proud moment, but it is not, with not enough funding and so little of our own aircraft. 8 fighters of our own is a joke, considering the QE can carrier 72 aircraft.
@@1IbramGaunt true. I know we have more on order. We should wait till we have them before going on a large deployment like this. However, the QE will only carry 36 fighters in which 24 will only be British. I just don't think the carrier operation have been planned well anough. To say we're in the global stage, it just isn't true.
Like everyone else, I wish them well. But wishes don't change facts. QE has 18 F-35B's, eight of them USMC. Three or four of them are unavailable or unserviceable at any one time. This is fewer strike aircraft than any RN carrier since HMS Argus in 1922. Only 48 were ordered for both carriers, and it's taken three and a half years to get this many. At this rate, they'll never have a full complement - they'll have to retire aircraft as fast as new ones arrive. The F-35B has a combat radius of 833 km. WW2 Zero fighters had twice that. So do SU-35s and their Chinese counterparts. It takes hours to prepare for any mission, so it can't be scrambled to defend the carrier. Its average sortie rate is .4 a day, over weeks. In a few years, the ships can quietly go back to the dockyard for refit with CATOBAR, and a real naval strike/fighter obtained. Please God they don't go into harm's way before that. Until then, this is a disaster waiting to happen.
@@kalle911 The F-35B on all deployments so far has returned a sustained ground to air time of about 16:1. This, plus a sortie rate of about .4 per day, is what emerged from the Cyprus deployment and the naval exercises so far. That would imply that the maximum aircraft they could have up constantly is two.
I'm sorry but I just can get to liking the f-35. I just don't like it. I've tried but to no avail. I think in the long run it's going to be a lemon. A very expensive Lemon. I believe that the upkeep and maintenance on the jet will cost prohibitive and I think after a relatively short amount of time countries will see that it has been a great big boondoggle.
Expensive? Lemon? The F35a cost less then 80 million which is cheaper then 4th gen fighters like the Su35, Eurofighter, etc... The f35 can track ballistic missiles, has a DAS that has 360 degree awareness using multiple cameras and can see through the jet and see ground targets in real time on the HUD... It can do pedal turns with smart munitions and is why they keep trying to replace the A-10 with it. It also has the strongest fighter engine ever built. Is the F35 perfect? No. Is as any aircraft perfect? No. Look at the F22 it doesn't even have infrared search and track sensors... Look at the Su35, it uses a 1950s tech PESA radar, etc. I can go on and on, no aircraft is perfect. But the F35 for it's price and what it can do is hard to beat.
It's the most capable strike fighter the UK has ever operated even if we ignore the stealth. It might be expensive, but so is every other modern fighter and F-35B does not appear to be significantly more expensive than Rafale, Eurofighter or Super Hornet.
