HMS Albion (R07) after Conversion: A Modern Commando Carrier in Action This striking image captures the impressive HMS Albion (R07) in her transformed role as a commando carrier for the Royal Navy. The conversion of this amphibious assault ship, which began in 2013, was a significant upgrade that enabled her to support the deployment and resupply of commando forces, as well as carrying helicopters and vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft. The conversion involved the installation of a large flight deck, capable of accommodating up to nine Merlin helicopters or three Chinook helicopters, as well as a hangar to house and maintain the aircraft. The ship also received new aviation facilities, including a flight control tower and a fuel farm. With her enhanced capabilities, HMS Albion is able to support a range of military operations, from humanitarian aid and disaster relief to amphibious assault and counter-piracy missions. The ship's ability to carry and deploy commando forces, along with her aviation capabilities, makes her a versatile and powerful asset for the Royal Navy. In this image, we see HMS Albion in her element, with helicopters taking off from her flight deck and planes parked on the deck, ready for action. The ship's powerful engines and impressive size are on full display, as she cuts through the water with confidence and purpose. The conversion of HMS Albion represents a significant investment in the Royal Navy's ability to project power and support military operations around the world.
