British and Japanese demonstrate mutual friendship in recent naval operations

Not too long ago during World War II, Great Britain and Japan were deadly enemies.

Nowadays, they are close allies.

The two powerful, technologically advanced and rich island nations demonstrated their friendship towards each other recently when the Japanese carrier JD Kags allowed a Royal Navy F35-B from the huge British aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales to land upon it...

Meanwhile, HMS Prince of Wales's mighty sister ship HMS Queen Elizabeth has been welcomed into a US naval base by our American allies.

HMS Queen Elizabeth is the largest and most powerful British warship that has ever existed. An amazing feat of British engineering.
