First RAS in Five Years for HMNZS Te Mana
09 Oktober 2023
HMNZS Te Mana approaches HMNZS Aotearoa in readiness for Te Mana’s first Replenishment At Sea (RAS) in five years.
Both vessels had recently sailed from Vietnam after conducting a goodwill port visit in Ho Chi Minh City and were in transit to Malaysia where they are about to commence Exercise Bersama Lima – a joint military exercise with Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, and the United Kingdom.
Since refueling in Singapore 10 days ago, Aotearoa has supplied 575,000 liters of F-76 marine diesel fuel to the Royal Australian Navy and our fleet units. This included conducting their first night RAS in over a year.
