Leading with unwavering determination during fleet exercises near Scapa Flow is none other than HMS Fury - exemplifying leadership within the 8th destroyer flotilla. Onboard the flight deck lie Fleet Air Arm Supermarine Scimitar and Fairey Gannet aircraft; their presence signifies readiness for any aerial challenge that may arise during operations at sea. Once again gracing our vision is Royal Navy's magnificent vessel - HMS Invincible sailing across Northern Atlantic waters; her sheer size commands respect among friend or foe alike.
