From the six tugboat crews to pilots and harbour workers, everyone has their own special task.<br \/>\nPlanning for the resumption of operations with a carrier strike group began twelve years ago in Portsmouth harbour. The necessary infrastructure preparations were immense. A pier had to be built to accommodate the largest ships ever built for the Royal Navy. To enable the two aircraft carriers to manoeuvre safely, 3.5 million cubic metres of sand were removed from the harbour basin. The enormous energy consumption was also taken into account with the construction of a dedicated power station.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10329\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10329\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10329\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-05-02-Auslaufen-3-mfo.jpg\" alt=\"Goodbye for seven months\" width=\"1500\" height=\"743\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-05-02-Auslaufen-3-mfo.jpg 1500w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-05-02-Auslaufen-3-mfo-300x149.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-05-02-Auslaufen-3-mfo-1024x507.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-05-02-Auslaufen-3-mfo-768x380.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-05-02-Auslaufen-3-mfo-1080x535.jpg 1080w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-05-02-Auslaufen-3-mfo-750x372.jpg 750w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/21-05-02-Auslaufen-3-mfo-1140x565.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10329\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Goodbye for seven months<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The United Kingdom Carrier Strike Group departs on a 28-week deployment.

The 3700 soldiers will first make a detour to the Black Sea via the Mediterranean. The journey will then continue through the Suez Canal and the Arabian Sea. After crossing the Strait of Malacca, manoeuvres will take place in the heavily disputed South China Sea. The final destination of the voyage will be Japan.
