Aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth sailed into Loch Long today for the second time this year.
In February the Royal Navy carrier was alongside at the Glen Mallan munitions jetty on Loch Long for nine days, taking on supplies including ammunition.
The 65,000-tonne vessel passed Cove at 9.30 this morning.
A Royal Navy spokesperson said: “HMS Queen Elizabeth is currently heading to Glen Mallan for a routine logistical visit.”
Construction of HMS Queen Elizabeth began in 2009 with six shipyards around the UK involved in building different sections of the ship which were then transported to Rosyth dockyard where they were assembled.
Queen Elizabeth II officially named the carrier in 2014.
