Welcome back home to Plymouth HMS Protector this week and spotted on our live webcam making its way into HM Naval Base Devonport for Christmas.
The Royal Navy’s red icebreaker recently completed extensive maintenance works on Teeside.
HMS Protector provides a UK presence in the British Antarctic Territory and meets the nation’s treaty obligations for inspections, hydrographical charting and support of scientific research. It can also be called upon to operate in the tropics.
