The HMS Queen Elizabeth, the British navy's newest and most expensive aircraft carrier, will be accompanied by Australian navy ships through the South China Sea



“We are very much hoping and going to work together on deploying HMS Queen Elizabeth to the Pacific and hopefully sailing side by side with Australian vessels,” British Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson said.
“We want to make sure that everyone around the world understands that these two great nations are the greatest of allies."
