‘The Carrier Strike Group’ – The ACA discuss details of HMS Queen Elizabeth and her escorts
October 16, 2017
"Essentially the Carrier Strike Group consists of the carrier, the escorts, support vessels and, when applicable associated land-based aircraft. In terms of the UK carrier group, the exact configuration will be tailored to the mission.
That said, whenever one of the carriers deploys, it is likely to be escorted by a number of frigates as part of the anti-submarine defence layer, destroyers for defence air and potentially an integrated submarine for longer-range surveillance and protection."
no word about Opfor warships ... oh wait Nov 11, 2016
