Trafalgar didn't have one fitted, did it.

In keeping with RN tradition and for the purposes of sea trials the pump jet system was not fitted in favour of a standard propeller in HMS Trafalgar and so the pump-jet was first used in the second in the class, HMS Turbulent.

They must have upgraded at some point. Possibly when they were refitted a few years ago?
