Why The Queen Elizabeth-class Carriers Are So INSANE
The Queen Elizabeth-class vessels can lead carrier strike groups, enhancing the UK's ability to project power globally. They are capable of sustaining high sortie rates—up to 110 sorties per day under optimal conditions—making them formidable in combat situations.

With capabilities that allow for extensive deployment without reliance on foreign bases, these carriers enhance the UK's strategic positioning in international waters. They can operate across vast distances, making them critical assets for global military operations.
