Description
English: Type 23 Frigate HMS Montrose is waved off by family members on the shore at Plymouth, Devon.

The vessel was deploying for anti-piracy operations to the Gulf of Aden.

South West Royal Navy frigate HMS Montrose deploys to the Horn of Africa and Somali Basin today on counter-piracy operations.

The ship is leaving her homeport of HM Naval Base, Devonport, Plymouth, this afternoon to join a NATO lead task group engaged in counter-piracy in the region. The Type 23 frigate will also be employed in general maritime security operations while ready for any other crisis response tasking that may be required at any time.

The ship’s crew also comprises a team of Royal Marines having exercised their full range of counter-piracy capabilities using HMS Montrose’s Lynx helicopter and fast rigid inflatable boats. Images taken by LA(PHOT) Dan hooper on 09/08/10.
