There was a major accident on the British aircraft carrier – media

One of Britain’s two largest warships may have suffered damage to her starboard propeller shaft.

The Royal Navy’s newest aircraft carrier, HMS Prince of Wales, suffered serious technical problems shortly after sailing for the United States. This was announced yesterday by the Sky News channel.

According to unofficial data, one of the two largest warships in the country was damaged in the starboard propeller shaft.

The £3bn aircraft carrier, which only became fully operational last year, is now anchored south-east of the Isle of Wight.

“HMS Prince of Wales remains in the exercise area off the south coast while investigations into a new engine problem continue,” a Royal Navy spokesman said.

It is known that on August 27, the aircraft carrier departed from British Portsmouth as part of a mission to practice “operations using stealth aircraft and UAVs off the coast of North America and in the Caribbean.”

He will visit New York, Canadian Halifax and the Caribbean. In particular, in the United States, HMS Prince of Wales is to receive fifth-generation F-35 fighters and drones.

Recall that in India, the aircraft carrier Vikramaditya burned during tests off the coast of Karnataka. The fire was localized by personnel using fire extinguishing systems.
