The Royal Navy’s first-in-class Type 31 frigate, HMS Venturer, has officially rolled out from the build hall at Babcock’s Rosyth dockyard — a major milestone in the £1.25 billion Inspiration-class program. From UK Defence Journal.
The operation (27 May 2025) saw the 5,700-tonne vessel emerge for the first time from the purpose-built Venturer Building, where she has been under construction since 2021. The event marks the transition from structural assembly to the next critical phases: float-off, combat systems integration, and sea trials.
