EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by POA (Phot) Ray Jones, we witness the seamless integration of two formidable forces - the Army Air Corps and the Royal Navy. The image showcases an awe-inspiring moment as an Apache helicopter from 656 Squadron takes off from the flight deck of HMS Ark Royal during a high-intensity exercise off the Cornish coast. The sheer power and precision of this state-of-the-art attack aircraft are evident as it hovers above the ship's deck, ready to embark on a mission. With its distinctive Longbow radar system and advanced weaponry, this Apache is a force to be reckoned with in any combat scenario. HMS Ark Royal, part of the Invincible class aircraft carriers, serves as an ideal platform for these operations. Its immense size and cutting-edge equipment make it capable of supporting such critical missions seamlessly. This collaboration between land-based army units and naval forces highlights their joint commitment to ensuring national security. As we delve into this remarkable photograph, we can't help but appreciate both the skillful expertise required to pilot such a complex machine and the teamwork displayed by these brave men and women who tirelessly protect our nation. It serves as a testament to their unwavering dedication in safeguarding our skies and seas. POA (Phot) Ray Jones has masterfully captured not only an extraordinary moment in military history but also encapsulated the essence of strength, resilience, and unity that defines our armed forces.
