Re: Queen Elizabeth Class Aircraft Carriers - News and Discussion
Port: Three PTB bays and a smaller bay for rhibs.
Starboard: One smaller bay for rhibs.
Although four PTB's were ordered, each QEC ship only has three PTB bays. So some sharing of PTB's must be going on.

Re: Future UK Combat Aircraft (Project Tempest)
For the millionth time... Tempest isn't a plane. It's a future technologies team, called "Team Tempest". The plane is just a representational model and is almost certainly a reuse of the old BAE Replica model. There is no future plane called "Tempest".

Have loads of photos but not sure how to upload them from my laptop? Quite easy to upload, theres an "Add Files" button in the chat/reply window you normally use. Once uploaded from your source, the photos become "attachments" and you can then "place inline" the photos...

If only 10%, what gives them the right to sell a BAE ship as a Lockheed Martin one?

Re: HMS Victory (1778-Present) (RN)
Today marks the 213th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar. On this day in 1805 Horatio Nelson, aboard HMS Victory, led 27 British ships to victory over 33 French and Spanish ships, losing his life in the process.
