Italy becomes the 3rd nation to land F-35B on the deck of @HMSQNLZ . A telling demonstration of the UK’s Flagship’s interoperability with other nations. The fact that US, Italian & UK F-35B are able to fly off another’s deck offers tactical agility & strategic advantage to NATO

Welcoming the Prime Minister today. Carriers may be operated by navies, but they are instruments of national strategic power. #CSG21 will work across Government to deliver security, diplomacy and prosperity on behalf of #GlobalBritain.

Maritime interoperability at its finest as the @RoyalNavy and ROK navy operate side by side conducting critical maritime manoeuvres. Thank you to the ROK Navy for their enthusiastic support to the #CSG21 deployment.

The @RoyalNavy has huge affection for Singapore based on our shared history, but this global city is also a beacon of freedom & prosperity.
We look forward to strengthening the bonds between us. #CSG21 🇬🇧🇸🇬

As #CSG21 says farewell to VMFA-211 @USMC F-35B aircraft, I wish to thank them for their commitment, loyalty & professionalism. The achievements of this deployment have been groundbreaking and raised the bar in terms of integration between our two nations. #StrongerTogether 🇬🇧🇺🇸

1/ The aircraft carrier is the ultimate expression of global maritime power.
HMS Queen Elizabeth & USS Ronald Reagan symbolise the might of the UK/US partnership & the ease with which our forces can combine here in the Gulf of Aden, or anywhere else in the world. 🇬🇧🇺🇸 #CSG21

5th Generation F-35Bs from both 617 Sqn & @USMC are flown from the deck of @HMSQNLZ on #CSG21. Here is a short video of some of our deck operations. Yet another example of the ground breaking interoperability & interchangeability this deployment is delivering. @SenNatRepQNLZ

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been honing our ability to conduct blue water carrier operations.
This is no small achievement. It’s not just about having the ships & aircraft – it’s about the knowhow to sustain this tempo at range.
Few navies can do this. #CSG21

Today @HMSQNLZ & @USSEssex_LHD2 cross-decked aircraft. The #CSG21 deployment demonstrates the UK & US are united in their efforts to ensure security & freedom of the seas & that their maritime power projection capabilities are interoperable, complementary & global. @RoyalNavy
