Abstract
AbstractThe maiden deployment of HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH (WESTLANT 18) was supported by a Role 2 Afloat (R2A) team. This deployment enabled the first of class fixed wing flying trials for the F35-B Lightning and gave the deployed team the opportunity to establish the R2A capability within the Carrier Strike Group. During the deployment the team engaged in continuous medical education and training. This paper describes the experience of the team utilising in-situ simulation techniques, which had not been used before on a R2A deployment. In particular, a high fidelity in-situ simulation exercise (Ex POSEIDON) was enabled with the support of the US Navy, and the lessons identified from this are described.
