This ship is now known as the NAM Atlantico serving with the Brazillian Navy since 2018. It is the Brazillian Navy's flagship, and it was recently upgraded (by the Brazillians) to be a multipurpose aircraft carrier instead of a multipurpose helicopter carrier. With this upgrade comes the ability to launch UAVs and VTOL Aircraft. There are also talks to buy SAAB JAS-39 Naval Variant aircraft to use on the NAM Atlantico, but this has not been validated. If I made any mistakes feel free to correct me!
Why does it have a British crew and was recently sent to somewhere near Somalia? If we can crew the ships and send them wherever we decide, why not sell our two new carriers to Brazil? It sounds like a great deal to me! All we need do in exchange is let them fly the Brazilian flag.
@roger that how are helo carriers stronger than aircraft carriers... there is no helo out there that can beat any 4th or 5th gen fighter jet with the ability to fight beyond visual range... helo carriers have a reduced radar range as an aircraft carrier can easily deploy a e-2 radar plan and increase their radar by 500 miles. Secondly there is no way a helo can destroy a cruiser or destroyer. AA weapons using the Aegis system could easily shoot down a helo from 100 miles away. A helo couldn't even hold its own against a littoral combat ship. Helos are best for infantry support and submarine hunting... the can't shoot out any modern ships.
@@hendi1571 It's obvious that Hendi knows what he is talking about, and amazingly a person who chose the handle "roger that" is spewing counter facts. Pretty much everything he said is wrong. Makes me think "roger that" is a Chinese propaganda account.

I was discussing the Aussie nuke sub thing with someone relative to Taiwan and China. I mentioned Taiwan wasn’t alone, as the US and the UK was standing beside her, and someone said, “like the UK could do anything?” I was like, “Do you even have a clue as to the history of the UK at war? Personally, I feel great comfort knowing the the UK is there…
Be realistic The Royal Navy at any one time has only 9 warships that are at sea or can put to see at short notice. Not in much of a position to go up against China.
@@Hattonbank well we have 2 aircraft carriers with f35 and also the most advanced air defense destroyer ever made with the type 45. Yes the numbers are on china's side but our carrier strike group is more than enough to deal a massive blow to the Chinese navy. Also we'll be with the yanks aswell so yeah
@@ahab9712 Be realistic, the Chinese Navy is bigger than the US and all NATO navies combined and is adding 3 ships per month to the fleet. They have 60 subs whose primary mission is carrier sinking. The Pentagon has conducted five separate war game exercises where the scenario is going up against the Chinese navy and air force in support of Taiwan. The Pentagon reported that in every exercise, they were defeated by the Chinese. It is not what I like to read, but it is the unfortunate reality. The USA has made no commitment to go to the aid of Taiwan, its position remains ambiguous in the event of a Chinese attack on Taiwan.I cannot see any situation where the UK gets involved if the Chinese attack Taiwan. We are reaping the whirlwind that we have sowed by transferring our industries and technology (helped by their theft) to communist China which has allowed them to build up their economy and their militaty. We never did that for Germany in the 1930's, or to the Soviet Union in the Cold War, but we have gifted it to China. We will rue the day.
@@Hattonbank Yeah hopefully our ausuk deal to give subs to the aussies will help but it will take a while.

Actually, she went out of commission 3 years ago and was sold to the Brazilian Navy for only $105 million.

A former soldier myself, I can't believe I just heard, on this military vessel, the words, ''At twenty to eight'' Surely he would have said ''At 1940 hrs''???
There are 17 year old girls on the crew of the ship, but the film crew abandons ship because it is not considered safe. C'mon people. We didn't get to see the most interesting part of the voyage. Other than that this was very good and makes me respect the Royal Navy.
The TV crew isn't trained or would be insured for such a situation and is not the responsibility of the ship of Royal Navy to protect them. They could also be in the way, see classified operations they are not privy to . The younger girls on the ship are not cheerleaders, they are trained members of the Royal Navy and are at work, doing what they are being trained to do.
Wow! An extremely well-done vid! Puts the viewer in the thick of it! (I was trying to sound British, since I am American!) Haha Thanx for posting! Really enjoyed it!
The US needs to give a Seawolf, a Gerald Ford, and a an air defense warship such as an Aegis. And maybe our top destroyer. Maybe two Zumwalts. Make Britain terrifying again. I am half Brit and half American. Let us unleash like we did in WW2. US firepower with British courage. That combination never fails.
she was, ultimately too big, too slow, and woefully under armoured, leaving this noble lady, too suseptable to sinking fast. Via either a.t.s plane fired missiles, or larger l.t.s missiles. but to me, she was the finest ship i ever had the privilige to serve on.
They’re at sea for months sometimes before restocking at a port. What did you expect them to have freshly cut wagyu and live lobster onboard a ship that’s been sailing for weeks?
@@prepperjonpnw6482 I was just 15 years old when I was under training in the Royal Navy, by the time I was 18 I had already served on a warship for 2 years. Those were the days :-)
idk what the situation was but the states would’ve never done that. They also filmed this in 2017 and sold the ship to brazil in 2018 so maybe they just didn’t give a fuck.
Might be a case of put all the idiots on one ship and send them to hopefully die well at least I’d hope that’s the case these guys are incredibly incompetent
It is better to have a position on board than to have to trudge through the water and the desert as a Marine, where the risk of getting injured or worse is much greater.
There is no question if ‘picking them up and dumping them in Europe’ is the right thing to do, it definitely is, the are issues are around what happens when they get there, how we treat them, and how we screen them for who is a risk, and how we decide who gets given citizenship, and who needs to be returned to their home county.
UK: „What are you doing? Get in here NOW!“ US: „Private, GET ON YOUR POSITION IMMEDIATELY!“ Germany: „Where is everyone? Oh, you! - YES SIR! - GET ON YOUR POSITION NOW! - YES SIR! - MOVE NOW! - YES SIR!“
3:09 I wouldn't worry about it, they were on their way to join a US task force, shooting a few missiles isn't going to be enough to get through the Aegis system, even if it did all the ships in the task force have a CIWS. I dunno what missile defense system the Ocean used but I seriously doubt a few random, non-hypersonic missiles would get through it.
Well here's something you didn't know my friend when they fired those missiles the Navy ships the US in Britain ships are there to keep Iran from supplying the rebels with weapons that's the official story and that they are there to enforce the United Nations mandate okay sounds good it's only one problem why does the United States get to call the shots I mean you got the f****** Coast guard far away from home patrolling the Iranian coast and stopping Iranian ships headed out of there territorial boundaries and boarding Iranian tankers and supply ships you name it I didn't know our coastline extended to the coastline of Iran.. what the f*** the United States Navy doing the rebels fired on the Navy ship because they are trying to stop guns and s*** from flying coming in that ain't our f****** job dammit those people trying to defend themselves against Saudi aggression what they should have done was fired more than one missile had a whole damn barrage but this time not at the ship but only a few miles away from the ship enough to cause a tsunami and sink the m************ piece of crap when it should be trying to help those people by allowing food and medicine to come in from Iran f*** that egregious system they're doing nothing but supporting the Saudi LED correlation against those people I mean hell you got people wearing dresses fighting off in the entire army with dresses and sandals I say more power to him then maybe tomorrow we was in the international water no b**** you're there to keep them from getting food and medicine from Iran so they did the right thing they attacked an enemy that was supporting their enemies let's be realistic and call it for what it is my only problem is they didn't do it right and

There is always something nasty not to far away trust the Royal navy
This is a really interesting series. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching, Chuck!
Wow soo nice
God Bless The HMS Ocean and its crew members.
you'd be blessing I think Brazillian sailors now..... the Ocean was sold to them a few years back.
I wish my ship would have went to Suez Canal area.
Egypt will been awsome to visit.
My ship docked at Oman but never Egypt.
That whole Suez Canal area gorgous color water there too.
I went through the Suez Canal on the USS Forrestal cv-59 aircraft carrier United States Navy very treacherous Passage and that was back in the late 70s and early 80s
A former soldier myself, I can't believe I just heard, on this military vessel, the words, ''At twenty to eight'' Surely he would have said ''At 1940 hrs''???
Talking to a civilian camera crew for civilian showing? what do you expect - Uncle Albert?
How OLD is this video? HMS Ocean was sold to Brazil back in 2018...
@Robert P nope... Brazil has the HMS Ocean by now (NAM Atlântico)
@Robert P Helicopter carrier*
@Robert P HMS Ocean wasn't able to launch STOVL aircraft
What a lovely lot of young sailors. Well done you
There are 17 year old girls on the crew of the ship, but the film crew abandons ship because it is not considered safe. C'mon people. We didn't get to see the most interesting part of the voyage. Other than that this was very good and makes me respect the Royal Navy.
The TV crew isn't trained or would be insured for such a situation and is not the responsibility of the ship of Royal Navy to protect them. They could also be in the way, see classified operations they are not privy to . The younger girls on the ship are not cheerleaders, they are trained members of the Royal Navy and are at work, doing what they are being trained to do.
Ocean isn't 'flag ship' anymore, Queen Elizabeth took over officially
He's not even in the RN anymore... Sell to Brazil
@@Tagadarealty thanks for update
Everybody knows that!! This first aired in 2017 and just made it onto YT
@@Tagadarealty when will british sell Queen Elizabthe? i mean the carrier.
@@jianyang6281 Not the QE but the HMS Ocean.
10:25 So they can't do it on the same boat, yeah?
Loving these videos about the Ocean.
Wow! An extremely well-done vid! Puts the viewer in the thick of it! (I was trying to sound British, since I am American!) Haha Thanx for posting! Really enjoyed it!
HMS ocean? It´s not exists, man. Search for NAM Atlântico!
The US needs to give a Seawolf, a Gerald Ford, and a an air defense warship such as an Aegis. And maybe our top destroyer. Maybe two Zumwalts. Make Britain terrifying again. I am half Brit and half American. Let us unleash like we did in WW2. US firepower with British courage. That combination never fails.
Give NOTHING sell possibly⚓️🇺🇸✌🏻✌🏻
she was, ultimately too big, too slow, and woefully under armoured, leaving this noble lady, too suseptable to sinking fast. Via either a.t.s plane fired missiles, or larger l.t.s missiles. but to me, she was the finest ship i ever had the privilige to serve on.
Armor? We don’t need no stinking armor.
- US Navy carrier doctrine
43:58 what vehicle is that i keep seeing that but dont know what it means
That's the BvS 10 Armoured All Terrain Vehicle.
That ship have a very serious mission and representing the U.K.
It was sold to Brazil 👀
Very interesting presentation. I tip my hat to the officers and the ship's company. Be safe wherever you are.
Excellent video, thank you for sharing !!!
Glad you guys are our allies and soon will be in 7th fleet area permantly next yr.where my ship docked japan
HMS Ocean is now apart of the Brazilian navy. It’s legacy continues
Jalapeño poppers...classy. Did they also serve dinosaur chicken nuggets? lmao
They’re at sea for months sometimes before restocking at a port. What did you expect them to have freshly cut wagyu and live lobster onboard a ship that’s been sailing for weeks?
@@d-paddan5393 They literally flew a bomb squad in...you telling me there's no food in Egypt!?
Looking att this I can't help thinking the guys of ww2 were much tougher
It’s her 18 birthday how cool is that 😂😂😂
@@zaceryhammond1144 I turned 18 while in boot camp at Ft Benning Georgia. I was literally peeling potatoes on my birthday! lol
@@prepperjonpnw6482 I was just 15 years old when I was under training in the Royal Navy, by the time I was 18 I had already served on a warship for 2 years. Those were the days :-)
I can’t understand why this ship is traveling alone without a Destroyer Escort.
Excellent time to action against terrorists .🌎🙏 Thanks 🙏 May God bless us in Jesus name Amen 🙏
define terrorism. you'll see how similar this shit is... the only thing different is the uniform or the suits worn by the people...
@@notthedroidsyoulookingfor And an attraction to goats and camels.
Thanks Brits.
Glad to have served 3 years on Ocean. It looks different internally. What happened to number 4 rig? Is 6 E now a wrens mess?
@HMS king George V Unless you enlist in the Brazillian Navy you won't be deployed in the ocean
She's Britains biggest warship... Not anymore!! Long live QE2 and POW
good luck to her crew's 👍
did it not deploy with other frigates/destroyers etc? seems a bit weird sending out a single aircraft carrier on its own
idk what the situation was but the states would’ve never done that. They also filmed this in 2017 and sold the ship to brazil in 2018 so maybe they just didn’t give a fuck.
Might be a case of put all the idiots on one ship and send them to hopefully die well at least I’d hope that’s the case these guys are incredibly incompetent
It's a beautiful miracle be safe God bless our man and woman in uniform
Very very awsome video open my eyes what my other brothers and sisters in arms do on there duty on ship.
we are in Internet Explorer RUclips, aren't we
Thanks for the upload!👍
It is better to have a position on board than to have to trudge through the water and the desert as a Marine, where the risk of getting injured or worse is much greater.
i've been on this ship in sunderland
There is no question if ‘picking them up and dumping them in Europe’ is the right thing to do, it definitely is, the are issues are around what happens when they get there, how we treat them, and how we screen them for who is a risk, and how we decide who gets given citizenship, and who needs to be returned to their home county.
amazing life and death is so slim ..i have seen this ....love the way you are organised
I dont really understand the idea of being deployed in a warship without even having the basic swimming skills......shocking- 32.05
Thank you, Evrist Tempro 🙏
Seeing the argument of competition and capability depends on training too. Firepower is a small part of that.
what an adorable little carrier!
Took less time on D-Day to land troops than it did for this video
UK: „What are you doing? Get in here NOW!“
US: „Private, GET ON YOUR POSITION IMMEDIATELY!“
Germany: „Where is everyone? Oh, you! - YES SIR! - GET ON YOUR POSITION NOW! - YES SIR! - MOVE NOW! - YES SIR!“
OMG, The HMS Ocean should be at the British Museum now.
Sold to brazil, she still has a good 20 years left on her, who knows maybe more?
The guy said he's on save place the musashi went down no problem mate 👍
When was this documentary made ? Because the HMS Ocean is not in the Royal Navy anymore.
Does UK still have any more amphibian ships in service ?
Yes 2
And 3 more in rfa
3:09 I wouldn't worry about it, they were on their way to join a US task force, shooting a few missiles isn't going to be enough to get through the Aegis system, even if it did all the ships in the task force have a CIWS. I dunno what missile defense system the Ocean used but I seriously doubt a few random, non-hypersonic missiles would get through it.
Well here's something you didn't know my friend when they fired those missiles the Navy ships the US in Britain ships are there to keep Iran from supplying the rebels with weapons that's the official story and that they are there to enforce the United Nations mandate okay sounds good it's only one problem why does the United States get to call the shots I mean you got the f****** Coast guard far away from home patrolling the Iranian coast and stopping Iranian ships headed out of there territorial boundaries and boarding Iranian tankers and supply ships you name it I didn't know our coastline extended to the coastline of Iran.. what the f*** the United States Navy doing the rebels fired on the Navy ship because they are trying to stop guns and s*** from flying coming in that ain't our f****** job dammit those people trying to defend themselves against Saudi aggression what they should have done was fired more than one missile had a whole damn barrage but this time not at the ship but only a few miles away from the ship enough to cause a tsunami and sink the m************ piece of crap when it should be trying to help those people by allowing food and medicine to come in from Iran f*** that egregious system they're doing nothing but supporting the Saudi LED correlation against those people I mean hell you got people wearing dresses fighting off in the entire army with dresses and sandals I say more power to him then maybe tomorrow we was in the international water no b**** you're there to keep them from getting food and medicine from Iran so they did the right thing they attacked an enemy that was supporting their enemies let's be realistic and call it for what it is my only problem is they didn't do it right and
@@guthabanglasdash8641 Have you never heard of punctuation? Also,it may be a good idea to develop a couple of cogent and logical thoughts before applying finger to keyboard.
This video is at least 5 years old. Ocean was sold to Brazil in 2018. Queen Elizabeth and Prince of Wales are the empires new carriers.
Great show! I am left wondering what the heck is all over the bottom of the guys shorts @ 36:22? The guy in the background... I am almost afraid to ask.
The chaplin teaches "The ethics of war." That just beats all. Why he is even allowed on a warship?
Is the HMS QUEEN EZIERBITH bigger I thought hms queen ezizerbith was the biggest ship in navy
This is 4 years old
Any chance of getting the other episodes of the series?
Ms
Would like an episode on HMS Queen Elizabeth
I don't fully understand or doesn't fully get---it because I thought the H.M.S. Ocean aircraft carrier or amphibious assault ship was already sold to the Brazilian naval officers and navy sailors for quite a long period of time!!!
This was first aired in 2017
yall say uk is doomed this is an old ship, and for the crew its a show and act of kindness to Egypt so chill out.
I love the series, KEEP IT UP!
@$ 7:20 ❤❤
Nice show. But as of 2018 this is a helicopter carrier for Brazil. England has 2 brand new super aircraft carrier's 🇬🇧
wow leading steward with a tash and dreadlogs cool running
The young recruits have too much to absorb. Good doc.
These guys are not ready for contact....
43:46 what is the music?
8:49 I didn't know you guys play ludo.
Ludo! that ain't ludo sunbeam that's uckers far more technical and complicated I can assure you!
0:00-0:25 *This is Atlantico, she was Britain's biggest warship
Great video. I'm British but I've never heard of this ship, the HMS Billy Ocean sn't it more aircraft carrier now? ;-)
Fred Karno's army I had heard of. Her Majesties Ship Billy Ocean is new. I look forward to seeing the 36-26-36 Halle Berry squadron RAF in action..
Funny how the sailors are just ignoring the XO.
22:05 I wonder what British embassy in Cairo was doing over the years
I am very pleased to see how organized and civilized this team is, as depicted in this video, I would not mind living all my active life as a Navy Sailor!!! Adventurous indeed!! 😆 😆
Very please to see what goes on the ship
Such a happy young lady
The ocean was build to a non combat (Lloyd’s of London) standard
Shhh don't tell 'em!
remember your friends! the HMS ocean is no longer from england. it was bought for my country's navy for 350 million !
80 million*
