And then there were three…The 3⃣ prongs of #NATO’s #NeptuneStrike Trident 🔱 sailing under the Alliance flag!

HMS Queen Elizabeth 🇬🇧, a feat of British naval engineering and the largest warship ever built for the @RoyalNavy, is under #STRIKFORNATO’s command-and-control for the first time ever.
This apex of the British Fleet will be joining ITS Cavour 🇮🇹 and ESP Juan Carlos I 🇪🇸 throughout the execution of #NeptuneStrike 23-3.

The synergy between these three colossi sends a clear message of how European Allies stand steadfast to defend every single inch of @NATO territory. 🛡️
