âš“ A proud moment for Great Yarmouth!
We were honoured to award the Freedom of the Borough to the Royal Navy destroyer HMS Dauntless – recognising both her incredible service and our town’s deep-rooted naval heritage.
Crew members joined us for a fantastic day in the borough, including an open-top bus tour and a special ceremony at the Town Hall, where this prestigious honour was officially presented.
As one of the Royal Navy’s most advanced warships, HMS Dauntless has travelled the globe – from Australia to Japan – helping to protect and promote stability in some of the world’s most challenging waters. 🌍
But beyond her cutting-edge technology and global missions, it’s the people behind the ship that truly make her special. We’re proud that Great Yarmouth can now stand alongside the families, friends and supporters who champion her crew every day.
This award also celebrates our town’s historic connection to the Royal Navy – from Horatio Nelson to today’s modern fleet – continuing a legacy of service, bravery and community.
Thank you to the crew of HMS Dauntless for visiting us – it was a privilege to welcome you and mark this special occasion together. 💙

125 years of the Royal Navy Submarine Service.⚓️
Here’s to all who have served below the surface - past and present.
They protect. They deter. They defend.

The #RoyalNavy is buying 20 crewless boats as we look to build on our ability to merge both crewed and uncrewed forces. Delivered by UK USV specialists Kraken Works, they will be used by the Coastal Forces Squadron and @RoyalMarines from 47 Commando

HMS Dragon has begun her journey to the eastern Mediterranean to join the UK's defensive operations in the region.
Hundreds of well-wishers, including loved ones of the ship's crew, lined the seawall as the ship sailed from Portsmouth.

@HMSDuncan battled drones blazing in at over 200mph, simulated missiles and fast-moving surface vessels — day and night. The result? Five aerial targets neutralised. Two Hammerheads sunk.
Ready to fight. Ready to defend.

Many thanks to @HMSDauntless for hosting some of our WE Department onboard today. While alongside in Portsmouth we’re making the most of the opportunities to see other ships and establishments so we can work better together in the future! #TeamTrent #aWEsome #Dauntless

Several of our aircrew and engineers from Operation HIGHMAST were invited to @10DowningStreet for a personal thanks from the Prime Minister. A well-deserved recognition for their professionalism, resilience and outstanding contribution throughout the premier deployment of 2025.
#815NAS deployed in @HMSPWLS, @HMSDauntless and @Forsvaret_no HNoMS Roald Amundsen on an intensive eight-month operation across the globe. Our Wildcat helicopters proved their worth as a credible maritime strike platform, built around the precision and punch of our Martlet and Sea Venom missiles.

The environment we operate in is changing at pace - more complex, more contested, more demanding.
The @RoyalNavy is adapting just as fast: advancing our ships, training, and technology.
As a hybrid navy we protect the UK’s interests at home and abroad.
