Summary[edit]

Description
English: Type 45 destroyer HMS Daring is pictured in heavy seas in the Middle East following the handover of patrol duties from HMS Argyll.

HMS Daring is the first of the Navy’s six £1bn Type 45 destroyers and she is the first of class to deploy. In preparation she conducted work-ups with an American Carrier battle Group back in 2010 and gone through a series of upgrade programmes to ensure she met the high standards required for deploying RN units.

Daring is designed to create a defensive shield around a task force – and troops ashore – protecting them from air attack. The ship was launched on a bitterly cold day at BAE Systems’ yard in Scotstoun on the Clyde in February 2006 by her sponsor, the Countess of Wessex.
