The largest and most powerful ship ever built for the Royal Navy is expected to leave her home port for the first time today.

The 280-metre, 65,000-tonne aircraft carrier is due to set out from Rosyth on the Firth of Forth.

We obtained video onboard the nation’s future flagship.

During her estimated 50-year working life, HMS Queen Elizabeth could be pressed into action for various work such as high intensity war fighting or providing humanitarian aid and disaster relief.
