Default velux window and roof intergrity

If two of the rafters are cut a Velux window 1340 wide will fit in the loft.
There are 6 rafters in total that reach the ridge, it would be two of these, the roof is hipped and sarked with planks.

It gets 100mph windy here, would this be too big a weakening of the loft?
thanks
