Summary[edit]

Description
English: Two F-35B Lightning II aircraft from the F-35 Integrated Test Force (ITF) successfully landed onboard HMS Queen Elizabeth on 1 November 2018 marking the beginning of the second phase of Development Testing (DT-2) of first-of-class flying trials (FOCFT). Over the next month they will continue to lay the foundation for the next 50 years of fixed wing aviation in support of the UK’s Carrier Strike Capability by concentrating on external stores testing, minimum performance short take-offs and shipboard rolling vertical landings, and night operation. Maj Michael ‘Latch’ Lippert, USMC landed first in BF-04 and was followed by Mr. Peter ‘Wizzer’ Wilson in BF-05. Both ITF test pilots are based at Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland.
