Yes...there are two on the one wing and probably two on the other as well. Good eye, I missed the nose of the second peeking out there.
But the ALCM still looks to be on outside pylon on one wing and on the inside on the other.
in fact, Jeff, I'm a big fan of the Royal Navy (I spent a number of days, and several nightson reading about its history ... and I'm astonished by the low number of ships it operates now :-(
So it been Navy left in Defence force.
Navy away or Air Force with. Only Army.
Is 82,000 professional soldiers in today's Army. Of the total of about 146,720 after perhaps over 200 killed in 6-10 months in the job abroad.
I will today's strenght in british army groups. Nuclears in Defence Force important for over levas France nuclears bombs. France are old Enemy for Britain's biggest country how can bomb Britain with big bombs without Britain's nuclear. No good for british. Big bombs this nukes. Any time I want Britain to leave the EU.
The Royal Navy and the French Navy are pretty much on par in terms of size and types of equipment operated.
IMHO, if anything, the Royal Navy has a little more advanced equipment overall.
But both Navies are very capable. extremely good at what they do, very squared away, and very professional. And both navies have excellent equipment.
Let's not get into any more than that in terms of comparisons, or talk about their positions in the EU, etc., etc. here. This is the UK Military News Thread.

F-35B getting ready for the QE carrier(s) ...
very good find, I am just wondering if that ski ramp is the same size is as the one fitted to Queen Elisabeth ? and if that was the first take of using a ski ramp well done and congratulations to the team, looks like they had a lot spare power, that kite can fly
thank you Jura.
thank you Jura.
Heh, Heh, Heh, not exactly a CAT launch is it, I really can't imagine Kenny Logins "Highway to the Dangerzone" playing in the background? or even the Beatles "Day Tripper? shes a snoozer alright, more like "Up, Up and Away, in My Beautiful Balloon"??? Yuck Yuck oh brother.
Now lets get those C models out to the Boat?? shall we??
With the UK and other navies buying F-35Bs for their carriers, we will be seeing a lot of these types of take-offs over the next few years...and decades!
Some stills of the F-35B Ski-Jump testing.
hehehe...I am sure that the Royal Navy is very interested and directly involved with these tests. There is little doubt (Obi Wan) who the largest Ski-Jump operator of the F-35B will be.
That's an F-35B mockup that was positioned on the deck of the HMS Queen Elizabeth at her launch.
