New Danish combat support ships offer greater flexibility for NATO operations
Article Abstract:
Denmark's new 6,300-tonne flexible combat support ships HDMS Absalon (L 16) and Esbern Snare (L 17) are on schedule to reach full operational capability by the end of 2007, and at least one of the new Danish flexible combat support ships will be certified for participation in the NATO Response Force. The range of capabilities on the ships will offer unprecedented flexibility of use both within a national and NATO context.
