"UK Scrambled Sub-Hunting Aircraft As Russian Submarine ‘Stalked’ Carrier In Mediterranean"

"UK media on Friday revealed another major military close encounter with a Russian vessel following the June 23 Black Sea warning shot incident – but this time in the Mediterranean where a Russian submarine was said to be 'stalking' the Royal Navy’s Carrier Strike Group in the waters."

See from the Aviationist an article the topic F-35B from the QE II a combat mission as flown against Islamic State combatants.

"F-35B Jets From HMS Queen Elizabeth Have Joined The Fight Against Daesh"
