Take a look back at some of our greatest challenges as told by the men and women across the UK who made this possible.

Lower Block 04 is the largest hull section of HMS PRINCE OF WALES and contains the hangar, machinery space, mission systems compartments and accommodation. Its 20 metres high, 80 metres long, comprises a fifth of the overall aircraft carrier and is already significantly larger than the Type 45 destroyers, which were the last vessels to be delivered to the Royal Navy from Glasgow. The block is being delivered ahead of schedule and with a more advanced level of outfitting due to the incorporation of lessons learnt during the construction of the first vessel.
