Summary

Description
English: Pictured is the Algerian Navy Rescue Tug, the El Mousif in the English Channel.

The image was taken from Royal Navy Wildcat HMA2 Helicopter of 815 Naval Air Squadron.

The El Mousif bearing the pennant number 702, is the second of three identical vessels to be ordered from the manufactures in Norway. The 86m vessels were based on the Rolls-Royce UT515 design and have a pull strength of 200 tonnes and capable of tasks such as towing, salvage work, coastguard patrolling, oil recovery and emergency stand-by. It can reach speeds of 20 knots and is suited for patrol and fishery protection duties.

These Algerian Navy tugs intensive trials and training have been conducted under the auspices of British Navy Flag Officer Sea Training in the Clyde and on the south coast of England. A third vessel is due to be delivered in September.
