New Naval Ship Launch In Glasgow

GLASGOW, SCOTLAND ? APRIL 9: Crane driver Thomas Early looks on as Mounts Bay, a newly constructed landing craft for the Royal Fleet Auxiliary slides down the slipway into the waters of the Clyde, April 9, 2004 at the Govan Shipyard in Glasgow, Scotland. The vessel which has taken two years to build will be used for delivering tanks or heavy equipment to theatres of war or scenes of natural disasters. The launch was not all plain sailing as the stern of the boat collided with the quay wall on the opposite side of the River Clyde. (Photo by Chris Furlong/Getty Images)
