A new commanding officer has been appointed on HMS Prince of Wales after she departed earlier this week for a NATO deployment in the Mediterranean.
Captain Richard Hewitt OBE, Commanding Officer of HMS Prince of Wales, said on Twitter he was “excited to lead this amazing team for NATO now” and through “innovative times” for the carrier.
Taking Command of the [UK’s] largest warship is an honour as we push the limits of carrier ops with 3 new drones, [F35s and V22 Osprey aircraft] later this year,” he said.
During this period, he was promoted to captain and as the next Commanding Officer of HMS Prince of Wales.
