Navy’s new stealth fighters debut at Culdrose
14 March 2017
The Navy’s first ‘stealth fighter squadron’ is in operation on UK soil.
Four life-size models of the F-35 Lightning II – built from fibre glass – are in use on the replica flight deck at RNAS Culdrose so aircraft handlers from HMS Queen Elizabeth can get used to the size and weight when they start working with the real thing next year.
