Pulling up for a full tank... in the middle of the ocean. ⚓⛽
After sailing from Iceland 🇮🇸, @RFATidespring 🇬🇧 replenishes Danish Patrol Vessel, HDMS Thetis 🇩🇰 during Neptune Strike.
Replenishment at sea is more than a logistics evolution - it is a demonstration of NATO interoperability in action. By seamlessly transferring fuel, supplies, and equipment while underway, Allied crews strengthen their ability to operate as one force.
