As the #tentors challenge nears its end, our crews are still going strong to provide assistance to any hikers in need. Let's all finish safe and celebrate another successful and adventure-filled weekend 👏👏 #weare846 #StayHydrated

Today we hosted members of the Armed Forces Parliamentary Scheme, giving them a taste of what our mighty #MerlinMk4 aircraft are capable of.

#Throwback to this time last year, flying over London for the #Coronation .

#Coronation Anniversary The Royal Family

Good luck to @rnrugby and all the 845 players this afternoon 🏉

Best of luck to the Royal Navy Rugby Men's and Women's teams in their Army Vs Navy game at Twickenham Stadium this Saturday!

Over the last week, 845 NAS have operated concurrently around the world in 4 separate locations! Including gunnery, continental transits, maritime operations and essential training, our #MerlinMk4 aircraft can do it all.

Proud to be the wings of the UK Commando Force Operations

What a welcome! 🌌

These Royal Marines of the Surveillance and Reconnaissance Squadron (SRS) are often the first on the ground, often operating far behind enemy lines. They are the eyes of the UK Commando Force. Filmed in Norway as part of #SteadfastDefender24 #NordicReponse24 🇳🇴

Merlins in the Snow ❄️

Our Aviators are coming to the end of their Arctic training, ready to take part in exercises in support of UK and NATO units. Whether it’s lifting equipment or moving troops, day or night, the #Junglies are ready to go.

As a ‘thank you’ to their hosts for permitting annual winter training, 845 Naval Air Squadron performed an unusual delivery mission – saving locals weeks of effort in brutal conditions in the Norwegian Arctic.

Today marks the start of National Apprentice Week

So many great examples in the Royal Navy such as this from LAET Sam Mills.

Merlin helicopters from the Littoral Response Group (South) conducted training with Albanian forces by day and night which helped pave the way for future co-operation between the two countries.

The perfect cold weather challenge for Commandos in the Arctic.

#RoyalMarines take part in a biathlon when deployed in the Arctic – a winter sport combining cross-country skiing and rifle shooting. It is a race of speed and accuracy, making it perfect for honing warfare skills.

Arctic training is under way! 🏔️

The arctic is a unique environment, meaning everything from flying between snow showers to moving the aircraft over icy surfaces pushes aviators, engineers and ground crew to the limit.
