The Brits developed the cat system, so why is that it looks like the trust defelctor and starting point for launch is at or past the middle of the deck? And why a ramp if they could use a cat and it looks like they could only launch one plane at a time.
I know they had ramps for the Harrier jump jets, but were they not going to go with someother design, like the carrier variant of the F35 (pictured)?
