After five weeks, HMS Queen Elizabeth has successfully landed the cutting-edge F-35B Lightning stealth fighter for the first time. The next critical phase is to see how the jet operates off a rolling, wind-blown flight deck in daylight, in darkness, and even in a full-blown hurricane. See how the aircraft, supercarrier, and crew hold up during this grueling four-month deployment as they push through unexpected challenges, unrelenting storms, and one of the most dangerous maneuvers a warship can attempt: a replenishment at sea.
