Replenishment at sea for ITS LIBECCIO
November 10, 2010 - 18:38
On 9 November, the EU NAVFOR Italian Frigate ITS LIBECCIO was engaged in a replenishment at sea operation with the EU NAVFOR German tanker FGS RHOEN.
This is the second time that the two ships meet together to conduct a replenishment.
The Italian warship has conducted eight replenishments at sea over a three months period, with several tankers operating under EU NAVFOR (FGS RHOEN, HNLMS AMSTERDAM) and tankers operating under other forces.
This proves the essential value of these tanker assets, enabling EU NAVFOR warships to remain for longer periods at sea.
