Very interesting, did any other carrier Navy’s incorporate that feature ?
Another question, I believe the RN WW2 carriers could have the hangar deck open to the elements at the bow ?
And another
Do the QE class carriers have an emergency barrier installed for a ‘conventional’ landing?
Scenario, an F35 unable to land vertically or use a SRVL due to a failure of the lift fan / vectoring nozzle and / or battle damage
