RFA Stirling Castle – the newest ship in the Royal Fleet Auxiliary - is continuing her training to develop the Royal Navy's autonomous mine-hunting capability.

The former offshore support vessel is working with the Royal Navy's Mine & Threat Exploitation Group – the unit that specialises in detecting and neutralising ordnance threats at sea.

Forces News has been on board to see how the minehunting mother ship will help the group carry out that task.
