@johnbobson1557 What? A carrier that has a flood during sea trials (which is what sea trials is all about) and a carrier that has a steering/propulsion problem? Whilst the Ford itself took 6 years to get the Launchers to do more than 20 launches without breaking down, so in that time the deck was ripped apart 5 times when they installed larger and more powerful EMALS systems, then just last year the US Navy admited the Ford had just one of it's weapons lifts fitted, that didn't work because it was the wrong lift gear. The USS Ford is a year older than the QE, and only tyhis year became ready for sea! I think you are being a tad too harsh on big Lizzy, and the POW, They are after all THE most technically advanced aircraft carriers in the world, cost less than a third to build and less than a tenth of the cost of the Ford, or Nimitz class to run, can outlaunch, and outland/recover ANY US carrier in any given 24 hour period. You honestly don't really have a clue do you? You think once something so large and technical is built that is it for the entire future of the ship. I am just glad you are not, and never have been, in any western forces!!
