Turnaround time minimised, joint capability maximised! Thanks to seamless integration with Norway, the CSG has completed an ammunition replenishment and returned straight to operations. This highlights the speed, adaptability, and global reach that underpin Carrier Strike Ops.

Op FIRECREST Phase 1 complete but for the UKCSG HQ training continues in the US. 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇲 Warfighting advantage comes from understanding how we train/fight together. Great to work with @USNavy and RDML Miller during the @csg_two Warfare Commanders' Conference.
