Royal Navy helicopter becomes first British aircraft to land on world’s largest warship

A Royal Navy Wildcat helicopter has become the first British aircraft to land on the world’s largest warship, the US Navy’s USS Gerald R Ford aircraft carrier.
The helicopter is deployed with HMS Duncan in the Mediterranean as the Type 45 destroyer leads a NATO security task group in the region.

Duncan is at the head of a force of warships, known as Standing NATO Maritime Group 2 (SNMG2), which patrols the central and eastern Mediterranean protecting its waterways and providing a powerful security presence.

SNMG2 will operate closely with the USS Gerald R Ford’s task group in the coming weeks, and the Wildcat was dispatched to the aircraft carrier for a planning conference ahead of upcoming joint operations.

Duncan gets the gang back together as NATO force regroups in the Mediterranean

The gang is back together…
After almost a month dispersed throughout the Mediterranean region on individual duties, NATO’s Royal Navy-led task group has re-formed.
All seven ships in Standing Maritime Group 2 – commanded from Portsmouth-based destroyer HMS Duncan – have joined forces for a collective show of resolve.
Duncan and her staff, led by Commodore Paul Stroude RN, took charge of the task group from the US Navy back in July.
