The Aircraft Carrier Alliance is a partnership of BAE Systems, Babcock International, Thales Group and the Ministry of Defence, together with Rosyth Dockyard, set up in 2003 to build the Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers for the Royal Navy.[1] Along with Rosyth, five other shipyards are involved in the build process, including Appledore Shipbuilders, Cammell Laird (formerly Birkenhead), Govan Shipbuilders, HMNB Portsmouth and A&P Tyne.[1]
