the Prince of Wales will come out in 2018 with cats, arrestors, and a squadron of F-35Cs ready for that carrier by 2020.

Building plastic models can be time consuming, let alone huffing the fumes from all that glue and paint, but try and keep up.

No need to be insulting, AA.

I have kept up, and read all about the potnetial for shifting back to the F-35B, and the talk is that they "may" revert, or that at some future dsate thay "will" revert back to the F-35B...but they have not offically announced doing so to date, unless you have a link to the official announcement that I am unaware of.

I have close friends in the UK in shipbuilding and they inform me it is not a done deal. They have already spent a lot of money making the changes for the last decision, and changing back will just delay things further and add more costs.

So, until they do officially announce this, I will keep the actual official announcement of going with the F-35C as part of my dialog and documentation.

Should they reverse course again, I will update my site and dialog accordingly.
