Great job by Naval News! We should see MOJAVE on HMS Prince of Wales in November. This also indirectly tells us that we'll probably have Bedford Array F-35B shipborne rolling vertical landing trials, because that was in PoW's original program off coast of the US already last year.

Royal Navy Plans Carrier Trial For Mojave STOL UAS

A number of drone trials were planned to be part of HMS Prince of Wales WESTLANT deployment, along with Shipborne Rolling Vertical Landing work with F-35B. We could now get all of that this autumn, while Queen Elizabeth is also expected to be deployed. That would be impressive.

Also, "GA-ASI has worked with an unnamed radar house to explore a twin radar pod mission kit" for the Airborne Early Warning application. That's also great. I wonder if it has anything to do with...
