Summary

[edit]
Description
English: On the 29th August 2017 HMS ALBION had her first Aerial photos after coming out of refit at HMNB Devonport.

HMS ALBION was in refit since 2011 and in January 2017, 350 Sailors joined her to start the final preparations to get her ready for going back to sea.

HMS Albion is one of the Royal Navy’s two amphibious assault ships. Together, their mission is to deliver the punch of the Royal Marines ashore by air and sea.

HMS Albion has been described as the Royal Navy’s ‘Swiss Army knife’ – and for good reason. This amphibious transport dock is capable of carrying 400 sailors and Royal Marines with a huge range of skills and experience, from technicians and engineers to medics and chefs.

The loading dock of HMS Albion is packed with the trucks, machinery and water craft her crew use to carry out their duties. The ship also carries emergency supplies for use in disaster relief operations, from food supplies to water pumps.
