GIANT REBUILD

The video discusses the HMS Ark Royal, a major British aircraft carrier, and its upcoming refitting at Devonport. Completed in 1955, the Ark Royal is set for a £30 million transformation to meet 1970s demands. The refit will be expedited to three years, aided by computer technology, contrasting with a similar seven-year refit of another carrier, Victoria.
