| 説明 | A Royal Navy sailor closely monitors a radar display in Type 23 frigate HMS Monmouth's operations room.Alarms sound, drills commence, monitors flash, switches are made; it seems a lot to think about all at once, but this is the constant tempo in the beating heart of HMS Monmouth; the Operations room. There are banks of displays each showing unique information which, to the untrained eye, is a jumble of letters, numbers and lines, but to the members of the Warfare department who call the Ops room home, it enables them to fuse information together to allow the Ship to operate effectively and is their way of life throughout a 7 month deployment.Warfare is the word in the Ship’s nerve centre, whether it’s Above Water Warfare, Under Water Warfare or Electronic Warfare The Ops room is vital to the Ship’s defence and safety, enabling the Monmouth to defend herself and others if required, whilst maintaining a watch over other vessels and aircraft in the Arabian Gulf. The Black Duke’s crew are well trained and even better practiced, having been in Defence watches for 4 months as they pass the half way stage in their 7 month deployment. What a deployment it has been; escorting merchant vessels, counter-piracy operations, protecting Mine-hunters and conducting hundreds of Approach and Assist Visits on vessels in the Gulf as the Ship provides stability to the region through their Maritime Security patrols and Wider Regional Engagement. The Ops room is the electronic eyes and ears of the Ship, extending her reach over the horizon and connecting her to the rest of the Task Force enabling her to contribute fully to Coalition operations in the region. The Operations Officer and Head of the Warfare Department Lt Cdr Ian Feasey commented “Having received specific training at FOST for this deployment the guys have worked hard to maintain operational capability, through regular training and a strong team spirit; they remain ready to react to whatever situation we may face in the remainder of our time on deployment”*MoD Consent Form held by the photographer*-------------------------------------------------------© Crown Copyright 2013Photographer: L(Phot) Will HaighImage 45155655.jpg from www.defenceimages.mod.ukThis image is available for high resolution download at www.defenceimagery.mod.uk subject to the terms and conditions of the Open Government License at www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/.
