Joint Warrior Military Exercise - Sunday Departures


The busy days continue as some of the participating naval ships depart Faslane to head North to the West Coast to begin the 'war games'.

I have spent the afternoon on the shoreline capturing some images as detailed below.

HMS Penzance - (M106) Sandown Class Minehunter


HMS Penzance was transferred from the Garvel Dry Dock to the James Watt Dock in Greenock today.

Assume she was in for some repair work, and she later went out on trials.

The weather held as it had been raining earlier so pleased with that for sure.
