Talk:Standing Royal Navy deployments

The objectives and intentions ascribed to various deployments are simply ridiculous and sound like they are taken straight out of official announcements. Would the presence of an Iranian aircraft carrier in the English Channel be described by an objective observer as "The Iranian contribution to peace and security in the region and Iran's token of friendship towards Northern Europe"?

Ah yes, along with the Iranian SSBNs off the U.S. east coast... Buckshot06(prof) 16:37, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Contributions to NATO

There have been no Royal Navy ships assigned to Standing NATO Maritime Group 1 or Standing NATO Maritime Group 2 since 2012. The ships assigned to the Standing NATO Mine Countermeasures Group (SNMCMG) 1 and 2 since May 2014 were HMS Blyth, HMS Chiddingfold, HMS Grimsby and HMS Pembroke. The period of support is between one month and four months per ship. In addition, the Royal Navy provides regular contributions to maritime NATO exercises, supports Operation ACTIVE ENDEAVOUR in the Mediterranean using transiting surface vessels and submarines, and allows other NATO vessels in the Gulf region to refuel using the on station UK Royal Fleet Auxiliary Tanker.
