Minehunter HMS Blyth begins its six month upgrade pogramme, undertaken by Babcock at Rosyth. This includes two first of class fits and a "substantial" maintenance package. Awarded under the Surface Ship Support Alliance (the alliance between the MoD, Babcock and BAE Systems), upgrades will include a new high pressure air system. The new configuration increases the system pressure and extends the life of the system, as well as offering important cost and space benefits due to the significantly reduced number of bottles, which can now be maintained on board. Other upgrades include new ammunition ammunition protection in the main magazine.
