From the RAF Historical Society ... https://www.rafmuseum.org.uk/documen...s-Campaign.pdf ... page 119 of an interesting read.

So from about 2006 the only fixed-wing aircraft which will be capable of embarking in the Invincible class carriers will be the GR7s and we will maintain that capability until the Joint Strike Fighter enters service with the two new big carriers in around 2012.
Or not, perhaps?
