The aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales was damaged by a fire extinguishing system accident, which resulted in the engine room being flooded with tons of water.
In the port of Portsmouth, UK, the newest £ 3.1bn aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales was damaged by water entering the engine room. It is reported by The Sun.
It is reported that the fire extinguishing system of the aircraft carrier was out of order and tons of water were poured into the engine room and the ship’s power supply systems throughout the day.
The ship will be forced to remain in the port of Portsmouth for a lengthy repair that will take several months.
