We welcomed Katherine Jenkins OBE to our site in Govan yesterday to see first-hand the progress being made on HMS Cardiff. As sponsor of the second Type 26 City Class frigate, Katherine was given an insight into the evolution of the eight frigates we’re building for Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) and the Royal Navy. Last year, the Royal Navy invited Katherine to take up the honour of Ship Sponsor due to her work with the Armed Forces around the world over the past two decades. The honorary title and role is historically served to bestow good luck and divine protection upon a ship 🚢 Find out more about Type 26 👉 http://baes.co/QNyk50SEBkC
