WORLD OF WARSHIPS RFA TIDESPRING REPLENISHMENT TANKER BRITISH ROYAL FLEET AUXILIARY
Wallpaper Description:
The first of the British Royal Navy's four Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA) Tidespring Tide-class replenishment tankers is set to undergo customisation work at A&P shipyard in Falmouth.
The 39,000t RFA Tidespring will join the RFA, which is a civilian-manned fleet that provides support for the Royal Navy warships. The new tanker has the capacity to carry up to 19,000 cubic metres of fuel and 1,300 cubic metres of fresh water.
RFA Tidespring is expected to enter service before the end of the year, and will help provide major support to the Royal Navy’s new Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers alongside the wider fleet.
The various new systems to be installed at the Falmouth shipyard include communications equipment, self-defence weapons and armour, which will enable Tidespring to operate in the most challenging environments.
The tanker will feature a flight deck to accommodate the large Chinook helicopter, as well as provide other major upgrades over previous RFA tankers models.
