NATO SHIPS VISIT DUBLIN IN 2016
Donau (A516) is the sixth ship of the Elbe-class replenishment ships of the German Navy.
The Elbe-class replenishment ships are also known tenders of the German Navy. In German, this type of ship is called Versorgungsschiffe which can be translated as “supply ship” though the official translation in English is “replenishment ship”.
They are intended to support German naval units away from their home ports. The ships carry fuel, provisions, ammunition and other matériel and also provide medical services. The ships are named after German rivers where German parliaments were placed.
Donau was launched in March 1994 in Bremen-Vegesack, Germany. She was commissioned on 15 November 1994. On 11 January 2020, Donau under the command of Captain Bernd Abshagen left her home port of Warnemünde to join the Standing NATO Mine Countermeasures Group 1 (SNMCMG1).
HMS Ramsey (M110) was a Sandown-class minehunter of the British Royal Navy. Like other vessels of the Sandown class, Ramsey was built of glass-reinforced plastic and other non-magnetic materials so that her hull does not trigger naval mines as easily as standard warships. Ramsey and Blyth were decommissioned in joint ceremony at Rosyth on 4 August 2021. The Royal Navy announced in 2021 that following a refit by Babcock she will be transferred to the Ukrainian Navy, but later reports suggest she will go to the Romanian Navy.
Vessel HNLMS Vlaardingen (M863) NATO WARSHIP is a military ops ship sailing under the flag of Netherlands.
