HMS Dasher

We are back with a bang! Our annual maintenance period is now complete and we are straight back out on the water delivering important tasking. We are supporting the Royal Navy’s transition into a #hybridnavy

2000s Dasher, Puncher and Ranger @NavyLookout @WarshipsIFR @WarshipCam @warshipworld @seawaves_mag @UKForcesTracker @UKDefJournal @HmsDasher @HMSPuncher @HMS_Ranger

The excitement continues… This week we have been in London to welcome onboard Defence and Nuclear staff from the @cabinetofficeuk. @TowerBridge also treated us to a bridge lift.

We have returned back to the UK after 10 weeks supporting the @JEFnations - led activity, TARASSIS. It’s been an epic deployment, here’s a few highlights. #tarassis #evertheavenger

Stunning transit through the Finland archipelago yesterday with @HMSPuncher, an absolute must-see.

Great Replenishment At Sea serial conducted yesterday with the Latvian Navy proving our ability to work closely together with our #NATO allies. @UKinLatvia @JEFnations #TheHorseAlwaysGallops

Very privileged to have had @chriswebbartist paint this stunning picture of HMS DASHER

Yesterday, along with @HMSPuncher we had the privilege of supporting Latvian warship LVS Rezekne as she hosted both the President of Finland and President of Latvia onboard. We escorted her through Liepaja harbour to their Diving School. #Tarassis #JointExpeditionaryForce

We have now concluded Ex Northern Coasts with an incredible PHOTEX involving 30 #NATO warships. We now head further East to support more Tarassis Activity with @JEFnations #NorthernCoasts25 #Tarassis #EverTheAvenger

EASTERN SEA begins phase two of TARASSIS activities. @RoyalNavy P2000 patrol boats will work alongside their Latvian colleagues, operating Skrunda Class patrol vessels, protecting crucial harbour facilities 🇬🇧🇱🇻 #JEFtogether #TARASSIS

EX EASTERN SEA, part of the TARASSIS series of activities, brings together maritime forces from Latvia, Sweden and other JEF nations, including the UK’s Coastal Forces Squadron, for ASW and security cooperation in the Baltic Sea region. Now entering the harbour protection phase⚓️

Following seas doesn’t always mean it’s comfortable sailing, sure does make us go faster though! One hand for yourself and one hand for the ship. #SeaStateRoughers #EverTheAvenger

Final pilotage out of Warnemunde this morning for a while. We have now conducted more pilotages out of Warnemunde this year than we have out of our base port, HMNB Portsmouth. Goes to show how busy the mighty Dasher is this year. #EverTheAvenger #TheHorseAlwaysGallops

Testing #NATO warships ability to defend a Task Group whilst conducting Minehunting Operations today. @HMSPuncher #NATOFirst #NorthernCoasts25 #EverTheAvenger

It’s not often we get a sea state zero, but we sure do love it when it does! #NorthernCoasts25 #EverTheAvenger @HMSExpress @HMS_Pursuer

Early morning sails mean we get to see sunrises like this one. Beautiful morning as we departed Heiligenhafen to support NATO warships conducting SURFEX serials #NorthernCoasts25 #EverTheAvenger #TheMightyFist #NATOFirst @HMSPuncher
