The new UK QEC Royal Navy aircraft carriers, HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales, are expected to enter service in 2016 and 2018. QEC will displace 65,000t, a size between the USA's 100,000t Nimitz Class and the French 43,000t Charles de Gaulle Class aircraft carriers. Each ship will have a complement of typically 1,200, including 600 aircrew.

 

GTF started now delivery of  M.O.D. approved light-weight deck covering materials for the vessels with an overall length of 284 m and overall beam of 73 m. Same materials were already installed on T-45 destroyers during the past years.
