Noted online arriving. Looks like nothing on deck.
"The Italian Navy Aircraft Carrier 'ITS Garibaldi' arrives in Portsmouth, UK, while on deployment for major NATO Exercise Steadfast Defender. The weather was dreadful.
ITS Garibaldi, officially named Giuseppe Garibaldi, is an aircraft-carrying cruiser that can carry AV-8B Harrier II fighter/bombers, or other Short Take-Off Vertical Landing (STOVL) aircraft including helicopters. The ship operates as an anti-submarine warfare (ASW) carrier.
The Italian aircraft carrier is currently visiting His Majesty's Naval Base (HMNB) Portsmouth while participating in Exercise Steadfast Defender, the largest NATO exercise since the Cold War. The ITS San Giorgio Amphibious Assault Ship is also in Portsmouth on the same exercise."
