Aerial view of the RV - Research Vessel Triton - former prototype British warship demonstrator on the River Yare in Great Yarmouth - Norfolk UK. The Research Vessel Triton is a trimaran vessel owned by Gardline Marine Sciences Limited and a former prototype British warship demonstrator for the UK's Defence Evaluation and Research Agency (later QinetiQ). She was built as a technology demonstrator ship for the Royal Navy's Future Surface Combatant and has been used to prove the hull form's viability and as a trial platform for other QinetiQ innovations. The ship was used by the Australian Border Force's Marine Unit and was for a time moored in the River Fal near the King Harry chain ferry. As of 4 October 2017, she was moored on the River Yare, Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, England.
