HMS Diamond demonstrates 'wonderful partnership' with Australian navy
A three-day bilateral exercise started on Sunday by testing out electronic warfare skills at a distance.
The Type 45 destroyer HMS Diamond has been busy working with the Royal Australian Navy as part of a three-day bilateral exercise.
Earlier on Monday, HMS Diamond and Australian Navy ships HMAS Anzac, HMAS Canberra and HMAS Sirius refuelled, flew and tested high-end warfighting together as allies – "all within 12 hours of meeting".
In a tweet, HMS Diamond posted some of the group's progress, and said that the exercise was "a demonstration of a wonderful partnership".
