Daring carries out ammunition trials

HMS Daring, lead ship of the Type 45 destroyer fleet, has visited Marchwood military port at Southampton for ammunition handling and loading trials. The MOD are not forthcoming with many details of the trials but helpfully tell us the T45 carries "enough electrical cable to circle the M25 motorway three times". These trials which were carried out during a 24 hour visit are part of the series of trials the ship has to complete before it is accepted into service next year. Maybe even with some armament.
