God bless the Royal Navy, from your true ally America!
God bless America. God help both our nations.
@@specialkgb1980 the alliance will never be broken!
Our military loaned an entire strike group to the UK for training and now you have your very owned strike group! 👍
@@jeffrachau9268 That's right!
Biden hates us :(
I worked on both when they were being built. Beautiful ships the carriers and Type 45 Destroyers. Makes me proud to be British and Scottish
Nobody here mentioning the netherlands helping as well. God speed
Fair winds and fortune from the U.S. to our friends in the Royal Navy!
And a close friendship that is. 10 of the birds on board are from VMFA-211 of the US Marine Corps.
@@ajbridgewater Very cool!
What a lovely gesture
I pay a lot of attention to the Royal Navy. A lot of Americans do. To us that carrier looks like a powerful and beautiful warship. The Chinese pay attention too. They hate the idea of that ship near them. They told you not to send it. Of course that absolutely guarantees that it will be sent. Right away. A lot of nations are happy to see her. Not the Chinese. May God Bless the Royal Navy, HMS Queen Elizabeth and every ship and sailor! Best wishes from the Sunshine State!
@FalklandsRforeverBritishI knew a guy named Larry. An American Jew from Boston. He flew with the RCAF in the Battle of Britain before transferring to the USAAF. He was, no bones about it, a gangster. He developed his pilot skills during Prohibition. Flying to Bimini to supply the hotels on Miami Beach. Quote: "I joined in '39 to get an early crack at the N@zis". Another Quote: "ya don't mess with those guys" "they're serious business." Referring to the British.
I knew another man, a teacher and a Deacon. He was a quiet, humble man. He wore a fascinating watch of visible gears and many dials. When we asked to look at his watch he said: "it's not a watch, it's a aviation chronometer". Then he would explain how he used it to navigate and estimate fuel. Years later I learned he was a multiple Ace and highly decorated. He was also a veteran of the Battle of Britain. Nations who underestimate the British usually don't figure out how they lost until well after the end of the conflict.
Wishing you the best of luck from the US! 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 Safe sailing and Godspeed!
As a 61 year old ex-gunner I would have loved to be on that voyage. What an adventure. Makes you proud.
Salute you Harry , All the best 🇬🇧🏴

@John Mooney *Dalek Voice* _EXPLAIN!_
and i kinda like they actually tolerate moustaches.. like proper old school gentlemen
@Oke Ihenacho He appears to be one of the 'missiles will always get through' group. Ships are useless to them unless they carry missiles and pretty much only missiles, and anything else is 'easy to sink'. Especially when they (as they usually are) consider the big very long range hypervelocity anti shipping missiles out there these days.
Problem with those people is they are forgetting one important issue with missiles... targeting. You see, the sea is a pretty big place, and a carrier task group in potentially dangerous waters will be sailing at speed (25 knots or greater), and changing course at regular intervals. It can take upwards of half an hour for a missile to reach the area those ships were last reported, but in that time a Carrier Group moving at 25 knots can be anywhere in a circle of sea hundreds of square miles in area, and the longer it takes for the missile to reach the area, the larger the area its seeker systems have to search in order to find its targets.
And this is the problem for the big hypervelocity missiles, you see those things have only EVER been tested against targets moving in straight lines at highly predictable speeds and in perfect conditions. As it is now no one actually knows if those things can actually HIT a rapidly moving and maneuvering target without the benefit of up to date real time targeting data.
And this is the killer, the only way to get that targeting data is via aircraft, which have to enter the CAP and Air Search Radar Envelope of the Task Force, or via submarine which has to be close to surface with its comms mast raised AND transmitting in order to pass the targeting data to the missile. Now, what do you think the chances of survival of either a targeting aircraft, or especially a transmitting submarine are going to be in the attack range of a carrier Task Force?
Without up to date real time targeting data those missiles have to use the search packages they themselves are equipped with, which are nowhere near as capable as either the Russians or Chinese make out, and if they detect the task force too late, and have to maneuver rapidly to reaquire their target, it is unkown whether they have the potential to do so without breaking up.....
That is not to say those missiles are incapable of sinking a ship, they most certainly are, but they are certainly nowhere even close the 100 percent fire and hit ratio that the 'missiles will always get through' crowd like to assume..... Until those systems are actually tested in combat their true capabilities are going to remain unknown, but the likelyhood is their accuracy is going to be less than 20% unless launched from very close range or guided in by a ship, aircraft or submarine.....
And you do not need to try to shoot down amissile that is going to miss.....
Wait till they pass out the grog!
The Royal Navy, copied but never surpassed. Respect from across the pond in Canada, a proud member of The Commonwealth.

Fair winds and following seas to all who serve onboard all of the vessels in this incredible Strike Group!
Without doubt
@whytheracecardisplayed it's not meant to be anything like a american strike group wise-arse.
@whytheracecardisplayedA lot like your "commander in cheat"
@whytheracecardisplayed who hurt you fella?
@whytheracecardisplayed america biggest strike group is the 7th fleet which is 12 ships. now this fleet leaving is a 10 ship fleet but it a collision fleet with one uss ship and 1 dutch ship so it not exactly a joke is it specially the fire power that there and when you think when they get to the china sea they be adding more ship to it from new zealand and australia then working with japan and south korea
Proud to be British! Will be an amazing trip! Thing of beauty the royal navy. For queen and country. ❤🇬🇧✊
That's cool but the U.S navy is superior

The type 45 are my favourite naval ships, that rotating radar high above makes it unique, and they are well designed the overall look too.
Big love for the Royal Navy.

The Royal Navy is getting back to its former glory and beauty.
God Speed, go safely but with fortitude in all you do!
I left to stay at home with my kids, but I still see things like this and envy what they are going to do. Some of the best times of my life were spent around the world on these grey hargingers of death. That carrier will get so much attention as well. The crew will be celebrities whereever they go.

@@henryvagincourt4502 you are correct oppo, all SSN and SSBN movements are close hold to this day. That said they have stated publicly that the CSG boat will be Astute Class this time round, think that’s not giving too much away, you’d still have to find it 😜
Amazing to see a navy ship actually sailing rather than being in dry dock being refitted over and over again
Fair winds and following seas lads!
The USMC is in the perfect opportunity to order a Queen Elizabeth as their new flagship. The USS Bonhome Richard is being scrapped. The Marines need a new modern amphibious assault ship. And having one single large-scale flexible Queen Elizabeth would be perfect. The USS Glorianna.
We currently have 9 LHD in commission with a 10th under construction. We build our own ships whenever possible for American jobs.
Warhammer 40K fan? (the _Gloriana_-class battleships ;) ) Or maybe a Star Trek fan considering there is a USS _Gloriana_ in that I think.
@@pvp64 one of those ships just got sent to the scrap yard. There are still Tarawa's to retire, and we can just build nine or 10 America classes instead of 11. The Queen Elizabeth offers flexibility that would be worth two America classes. Replace all the Tarawa's, build 9 American classes and one Queen Elizabeth as the flagship of the US Marine corps. I think it's a great idea. And there's no reason not to buy great equipment from our closest Ally and mother nation.
@@ThePalaeontologist just a history buff. I was just thinking as an alternate name for Queen Elizabeth. And also Queen Anne who was our Queen, was known as the second Glorianna. So it has a nice appropriate anglo-american twist.
@@MattCellaneous We have 9 in commission and that does not count the Bonhomme Richard which was scrapped. Again an 10th under construction. Most of them also have amphibious capabilities which the Queen Elizabeth does not. What flexibility does the QE have, that we don't? Again why would we buy something from our "Mother Nation" that we can build here and support American Companies and American jobs?
Royal Navy ❤
Qapla!
Those T45s looked bloody sharp and shipshape.
Safe seas everyone and do us proud. 👏
Welcome back to the big boys club RN!

Not many people in the Senior service have been in longer than 22 years. Many leave way before. Imagine the skill fade the RN compared to the other services.
Reminds me of 1982 and the task force.
Although it's quite a bit smaller, but far more powerful.

It's amazing how young the royal navy fleet looks now.
Because we replaced nothing for decades and now it's costing us a fortune to replace all the assets at once. It was a damned stupid idea. And because they're all new at once, the same will happen next time.

The opening shots - the Destroyer WOW what a sleek looking beautiful lines ship - if she's as deadly as she is beautiful - enemies beware!
exactly my thoughts, nice to see this beauty (if it looks good it is good).
Dear me! Enemies beware, you are so lost. The enemies of this country are not flying around in fighter jets, they are our politicians, our media, large corporations, bankers and the global sociopathic hegemony of hidden hands that are our enemies. Unfortunately you have all been indoctrinated to believe our enemies are states like Russia or China. These forces and the police are similar state protection assets. You are not at threat from Russia and others but you need to believe you are. So sad!
@@tomthumb4719 in my case your wrong - when I said enemies I meant anyone who decides to go against her (the ship). I am VERY aware of this global clique that controls governments and corporations alike. I work for a small private company but we have to interact with mindless corporations occasionally - jeez the waste and stupidity of these 'to big to fail' monsters is nauseating - you don't have to educate me (an American) it deeply saddened me when Biden et-al swindled their way into power no doubt courtesy of the aforementioned global clique - who I believe wont be happy till we're ALL subservient proletariat!
@@HodgdonH110 well said my friend. We stand together irrespective of nations as brothers in sharing as best we can the truths behind the global deception. I love USA but you have been subject to a global coup. Started with the Federal Reserve formation and was complete with the assassination of JFK. Every government has been a facade since. The USA military being used to deliver the global hegemony the crazy people need. Destabilise and divide. That was until Trump arrived and decided there was a different agenda. A nation first and a deescalation of international tensions and risk. You could see in the response of every entity from media to the corporations that he was an outsider and not following the script. They tried for 4 years to incriminate him and sully him but he only got stronger, so they had to resort to the ultimate act of treason, the stealing of a democratic election so the old stooge could be given the pen. In just 4 months we can see how the world is changing and how inflamed it is again. Take care and be brave enough to speak the truths irrespective of the consequence .
After the last few decades of decimating the navy, I'm surprised we had enough ships to create a Carrier Strike Group. Perhaps in reality it's the entire fleet.
Great film. Good luck lads and ladies.
