Really big. I mean HUGE. A new military hovercraft has come into service and it's the biggest there has ever been. It's 57 metres long, weighs 500 tonnes, has five (yes five) 10,000hp gas turbine engines and positively bristles with guns and missiles and is even stealth capable.

This gentleman seems genuinely proud of the fact that he gave up his job in order to attend every single day of the Diana and Dodi coroners inquiry with the words 'Diana' and 'Dodi' painted on his forehead and cheeks respectively.
