EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a moment of collaboration and cooperation between the Royal Navy, Royal Marines, and their partner naval forces. In the background stands the impressive FS Courbet, a second-line multi-mission stealth frigate of the French Marine Nationale. Working alongside it is the FS Mistral, an amphibious assault ship and helicopter carrier of the French Navy. Highlighted in the foreground is a Merlin Mk3A helicopter from 845 Naval Air Squadron (NAS), based at RNAS Yeovilton in Somerset. This squadron has embarked on FS Mistral as part of the French Jeanne D Arc 17 (JDA 17) task group during their deployment to the Far East. The presence of two Merlin helicopters and personnel from 845 NAS demonstrates their commitment to providing aviation support throughout this mission. This particular exercise involved approximately 60 personnel from both Royal Navy and Royal Marines training with counterparts from other nations over five months in the Indian Ocean and Far East regions. Notably, this marked an important milestone as it was also part of a four-part maritime exercise involving France, Japan, UK, and US for enhanced joint operating capabilities. In addition to facilitating troop movements between Tinian Island and various locations near Japan, Guam, and Tinian itself; these exercises aimed to deepen defense cooperation among participating countries while strengthening international partnerships within maritime operations.
