The reconnaissance ship Ducast de Lome participates in the mission in the Baltic Sea Friday, May 16 – said Kieler Nachrichten, which is a partner of the RND editorial network. Near the island of Fehmarn, the first meeting of the French reconnaissance unit with the Russian Navy took place. It was there that she was on the patrol of the Baltic Fleet Stojkij – described journalists.
Ducast de Lome has his home base in Breest. At sea, this 101-meter ship swims as a unit of the French Military Intelligence Directorate (DRM)-we read in the RND article.
The French ship follows Russian activities in the Baltic Sea
Journalists pointed out that “in recent years a white specialized ship with characteristic domes has been active all over the world.” “He was seen, for example, off the coast of Taiwan, Syria, as well as in the northern and black seas,” noted the website.
From May 16, Ducast de Lome is in the Baltic Sea, where there is a high demand for information from intelligence services in connection with Russia's activities. The reconnaissance ship “is equipped with modern measuring and location technology for the needs of the mission. High antennas can locate everything, even far down the land” – noted the RND.
The website pointed out that the French ship had to be involved in reconnaissance activities, because the previous tactic of obtaining information in the region using sea reconnaissance aircraft has been more and more effectively thwarted by Russian radar systems in recent years.
The German Navy is also very active in the recognition in the Baltic Sea. The OKER reconnaissance ship has been swimming near the Królewiec region for weeks and in the Gulf of Finnish. This unit specializes in listening and registering electromagnetic signals – said RND.
