You may have noticed this ship on her Olympic duty when, moored at Greenwich, she provided logistics support and was used as helicopter landing site during the London 2012 Olympic Games.

The Ark Royal would have looked puny, indeed, berthed next to this.
It's quite an impressive ship
I didn't know what an assault ship was until I spent time last winter in San Diego. Most impressive.
It's beautiful in a sleek war-like manner and exudes power and might! A fine-looking craft!
Beautiful and impressive !
Huge compared to those sailboats!
Now that is a very impressive looking ship!
Perfect perspective in your first shot VP and interesting details. Your harbour shots always make me want to jump in the car and head down to Fremantle port :)
I don't think I've ever seen a ship like this before!
Your harbour looks busy and interesting.
Impressive.
You seem to have a lot of military visitors in Livorno!
Interesting. An Italian ship was sent to Britain to help out with the Olympics. Nice cooperation.
That looks like no ship I've ever seen.
