Don't seem to recall USMC F35B being part of the question. Your contention was that a CVN wouldn't need as frequent refuellings and I asked you to do the maths on how often your CVN RAS'd AVCAT (or UNREP JP5 if you're struggling with UK terminology).
Seems you don't know your numbers. JP5 bunker capacity of CVN? Average sorties per day of a 50 TACAIR CAG? Average JP5 consumption per sortie?
Of course, we're not comparing like with like because QE is more like the Midway in her sortie generation capacity, but then no-one ever claimed she was capable of taking 90+ cabs aboard and being a CVN.
Point is - you'll empty the JP5/F44 bunkers in similar time, kettle or no kettle.
Nutloose - the Trents and diesels will be burning F76. Trials have shown it takes more than one torpedo to sink that size of ship.
