Commandos experiment with drone swarms…
#RoyalMarines have completed two weeks of experiments with swarms of drones in a first for the UK’s armed forces.
This was about looking at how machines can support - not replace - the commandos on operations.

⚓️🗡️@45Commando rehearsed their specialism of raiding from the sea, by practising long range covert insertions of surveillance and reconnaissance teams to inform planning by the Joint Staffs on @HMSAlbion for follow-on Littoral Strike Missions.

Commandos and the carrier...
Part of the 'ring of steel' around @HMSQNLZ but often unsighted are #RoyalMarines from @42_commando who provide the #CSG21 with the ability to intercept illicit activity but also to rescue downed pilots behind enemy lines.

Interoperability isn’t just about being able to communicate. It means understanding how our allies operate and being able to anticipate their movements, and move with them.

An incredible achievement and testament to a lifetime of service, sacrifice and duty. An honour to serve alongside you. The whole commando force, the commando gunners and the city of Plymouth are all really proud of you 👏 💪💥

Aggression left loose is like a burst balloon; immediately violent but quickly dispersed.
Focused and controlled aggression featured heavily in our CQB training with Griffin Bde, lasting exactly as long as it needed to and no more
