On the jetty and onboard - HMS Prince of Wales arrival in Portsmouth

[pennarpete]

As an ex Royal Navy old time 'stoker' lol, 1956 > 1964 this ship and her sister ship make me well up with pride. No way should the corrupt EU, get their grubby hands on our Navy or any of our other armed forces.

so proud of my sister still cannot believe she is on this...Having a close look around on this ship was one of the best experiences ever !

A few more destroyers and frigates and we might have a useful navy once again

I work at Appledore shipyard and we build units for both aircraft carriers sadly the shipyard is now closed .

Is there any likelihood that the QE and PoW would be able to dock at Devonport? I see from Wikipedia that their draught is about 11m, and nuclear submarines, which go to Devonport for refits & refuelling, have 10m (Astute) to 12m (Vanguard) draughts (entering/leaving at high tide). Yes, I realise that Wikipedia may not be privy to accurate design information!

When are we going to see the cwis in action and the mini guns too.

I can understand why nuclear power isn't used
But surely an angled flight deck would have aided flight operations

I'm surprised it hasnt sunk yet. Such a small, budget ship.

Il faudrait le FREXIT pour que la France libérée de Bruxelles puisse construire ses 2 nouveaux CVN-CATOBAR, successeurs du Charles de Gaulle.
Au fait, à quand un exercice commun CDG + QE2 ? ...J'ai hâte de voir cela.

.By the time the Royal Navy has enough F35s to make a squadron, the US Marines on board should have her well broken-in.
