ISRAEL – USA
Annual exercise “Reliant Mermaid” concluded off Haifa; participants included Israel navy corvettes HANIT (SA’AR-5) and HEREV (SA’AR-4.5) as well as US Navy destroyers JASON DUNHAM and FORREST SHERMAN and fleet tanker JOHN LENTHALL … practised search & rescue, vertical replenishment, maritime security operations, and live firing.
