HMS Invincible returns to sea

Article Abstract:

Fleet Support Ltd has finished the upgrading of the Royal Navy aircraft carrier HMS Invincible. One of the major alterations made on the aircraft carrier during the seven-month upgrade program was an extension of the flight deck which enables the vessel to accomodate the Royal Air Force's short take-off vertical landing aircraft. The HMS Invincible will now undergo a series of sea trials before the final handover.
