Scherp en waakzaam blijven in de Oostzee tijdens Baltic Sentry! Vandaag hebben we de uitdagende manoeuvre geoefend om naast voor anker te gaan . Zr. Ms. Luymes , Zr. Ms. Schiedam en de Zweedse mijnjager Ulvön. Foto's via @SNMCMG1 , @kon_marine , @C_SDAM , @TheBelgianNavy .

Together with HSWMS Ulvon from SNMCMG1 we mored alongside flagship HNLMS Luymes at sea. A delicate manoeuvre, enabling logistic transfers and meetings. #wearenato #StrongerTogether #balticsentry

Two ships from SNMCMG1, the 🇳🇱 Dutch Flagship Luymes and Dutch minehunter Schiedam, recently conducted a flag hoisting exercise. This drill demonstrates their ability to communicate through international signaling flags, a unique and universal method used by navies worldwide. It’s an important way to improve interoperability and strengthen teamwork between ships while operating together, even when they’re from the same country. #WeAreNATO #BalticSentry

Being at sea is one thing, being ready for any scenario another. Happy to see the team rise to any challenge! Foto's via : @kon_marine , @C_SDAM , @SNMCMG1 , @CdE_MD .

Always good to meet our allies at sea. #StrongerTogether #WeAreNATO #BalticSentry

NATO’s ships are patrolling the Baltic Sea 🌊 Baltic Sentry combines surface ships, patrol aircraft and undersea drones to give Allies a better picture of maritime traffic on the Baltic Sea, where several undersea cables and pipelines were damaged last year Learn more ⤵️

What a difference a day makes...

#SNMCMG1 flagship 🇳🇱HNLMS Luymes visited Latvian port of 🇱🇻Liepāja, as #NATO continues to secure critical undersea infrastructure in the #BalticSea. COM SNMCMG1 Cdr Erik Kockx met with Latvian Navy leaders, reinforcing ongoing cooperation between Allies #BalticSentry. Read more: mc.nato.int/media-centre/n… #WeAreNATO

#SNMCMG1's Dutch minehunter Schiedam 🇳🇱 and German minehunter Datteln 🇩🇪 teamed up for a towing exercise—testing their skills in rough seas. Towing isn’t just hooking up and pulling—it takes precision, coordination, and trust. Strong winds, shifting seas, and different ship sizes make every move a challenge. From careful approach to aggressive maneuvering, the whole crew is involved! Readiness, teamwork, and interoperability—because out here, we never sail alone. #WeAreNATO @NATO

Bringing two ships close together on the open sea isn’t as simple as it looks. HNLMS Luymes and HNLMS Schiedam recently trained in an alongside approach, mastering the art of precise maneuvering. @SNMCMG1 , @kon_marine , @C_SDAM , @CdE_MD .

We're back at sea. Enjoying the nautical weather!

HNLMS Schiedam, HNLMS Luymes and FGS Datteln & FGS Weilheim launched a FLEETEX - an intense navigation drill, manoeuvring in synch with precision and teamwork. #SNMCMG1 remains on the move in the #BalticSea, keeping vital routes open and securing critical infrastructure #BalticSentry #WeAreNATO

Starting our morning conducting exercises with our #NATO colleagues. #StrongerTogether #wearenato #balticsentry

Samen met bondgenoten letten Zr.Ms. Schiedam en Luymes in de Oostzee op verdachte scheepvaart en houden ze belangrijke onderzee infrastructuur in de gaten. #strongettogether @kon_marine @Defensie 👇🏻 archive.is/2025.02.08-083…
