The Spanish Navy’s buque de aprovisionamiento de combate (BAC) combat supply ship Cantabria has successfully completed its final sea trials and is ready to be delivered.
The sea trials were intended to test the vessel’s at sea refuelling capability and to ensure the correct function of onboard systems including propulsion, communications, combat and electronic monitoring.
Tests were also conducted for noise, vibration, surface search radar, auxiliary navigation radar, shooting guns and dropping anchors.
The Navantia-built combat supply ship will provide logistical support to a navy task force, and will also be available for humanitarian and environmental operations.
