Britain’s one of two UK aircraft carriers, HMS Prince of Wales, has set sail from Portsmouth to North America and the Caribbean for drone and fighter jet drills.
The ship will work with US allies, operating F-35B jets and uncrewed systems. The Navy says the drills will shape how Queen Elizabeth-class vessels operate with the technologies.
The 65,000-tonne ship task group will be formed with the frigate HMS Richmond, tanker RFA Tideforce and an air group of helicopters and drones. F-35B stealth fighters will join in the USA.
