Summary

Description
English: Pictured are F-35B Lightning Jets embarked on HMS Queen Elizabeth for the first Carrier Sea Training.

Pilots, engineers, cyberspace and mission support staff from 617 Squadron, the UK’s operational strike squadron, embarked the carrier during a quick stop in Portsmouth for supplies before the aircraft themselves landed on board.

The event marked the first time 617 Squadron – famously known as the Dambusters –fully joined HMS Queen Elizabeth as the UK prepared to deploy the next generation squadron of fighter aircraft to operate from the sea.

The F-35 jets that landed on board will be the same aircraft that will sail in 2021 with the ship for her maiden Global Carrier Strike Group 21 deployment.
