RFA Lyme Bay supports mine countermeasures with ship-mounted Rubb structure

RFA Lyme Bay has deployed to the Middle East as part of a multinational task group operating in the Red Sea and Strait of Hormuz, supporting efforts to maintain safe passage for commercial shipping.

Repurposed as a Mine Countermeasures (MCM) mothership, the vessel is now equipped to deploy a range of advanced autonomous and remotely operated systems, alongside Royal Navy mine warfare specialists, divers, and engineers.

Sailing in company with German vessels FGS Mosel and FGS Fulda, and under the protection of HMS Dragon, the ship is supporting a coordinated international effort in a region where maritime security remains a critical concern.
