Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether the flight deck of HMS Queen Elizabeth has had to have an extra steel covering because Sea Lightning jet efflux has proven more powerful than predicted.
This question was answered on 10th March 2015
The Queen Elizabeth Class carrier Flight Deck steel remains the same thickness and specification as per the original contracted design; a design which catered for both F35 B and C variants from the outset.
