Royal Navy flagship HMS Bulwark will enter Grand Harbour tomorrow for a five-day visit.
The ship, an amphibious assault vessel, also visited Malta last year. It is on its way home after a deployment east of Suez.
Bulwark is designed to send troops and vehicles to shore as quickly as possible using four landing craft which are deployed from a flooded rear deck.
The 64 metre flight deck is able to take two Sea King HC4 or AW101 Merlin medium-lift helicopters and stow a third. The deck can also support two Chinook heavy-lift helicopters.
