SINGAPORE: The SAF’s Landing Ship Tank (LST) RSS Resolution which has been on a three—month deployment in the North Arabian Gulf returned to Singapore’s shores on Saturday morning.
It’s the fifth LST deployment to the Gulf as part of Singapore’s continuing contribution to the multinational reconstruction efforts in Iraq.
The 180—strong crew undertook tasks like protecting the waters around key oil terminals, conducting patrols and boarding operations and providing logistics support for coalition vessels and helicopters.
According to the Commander Task Force (CTF), who is from Australia, RSS Resolution has made a critical contribution to safeguarding Iraqi waterways.
Commodore Bruce Kafer, Commander Task Force (CTF) 158, had commended RSS Resolution on its sterling performance.
