Summary[edit]

Description
English: Pictured is HMS DEFENDER conducting joint military training in the Indian Ocean with the French ship FS PROVENCE (D652).

The Type 45 destroyer, also known as the D or Daring class, is an advanced class of guided missile destroyers built for the Royal Navy.

Destroyers are part of the backbone of the Royal Navy, committed around the world 365 days a year hunting pirates, drug runners or submarines, defending the Fleet from air attack, and providing humanitarian aid after natural disasters.

Britain's 6 Type 45 destroyers are the most advanced warships the nation has ever built. Their mission is to shield the Fleet from air attack using Sea Viper missile which can knock targets out of the sky up to 70 miles away.

FS PROVENCE (D652) Third FREMM (Aquitaine class) built for the French navy, but the second in service in the fleet since the No. 2 (Normandy) was sold to Egypt.
