Re: !Wings of 12

The air wing of each carrier will consist of 12 F-35Bs.

With that few aircraft I'd have called it a flight, myself – two or more flights to a sqn, two or more sqns to a wg, etc etc - but in these straightened times the entire RAF would only just comprise a WW2 group, in terms of aircraft numbers.
