The Royal Australian Navy (RAN) has commissioned its second and final Supply-class auxiliary oiler replenishment (AOR) vessel.
The ship, HMAS Stalwart (A304), was inducted at its home port of HMAS Stirling in Perth, Western Australia, on 13 November. Stalwart is the second of two 19,500-tonne AOR vessels ordered under an AUD642 million (USD470 million) contract [...]. First-of-class HMAS Supply arrived in Perth for final fit-out in October 2020 and was commissioned in April 2021. The two new AORs replace two older RAN oilers – the former HMAS Success , which was retired in June 2019, and HMAS Sirius , which will be decommissioned in December 2021.
