HMS Bangor... literally

British minehunters collide in Gulf, damage to be assessed - Video has emerged showing HMS Chiddingfold and HMS Bangor colliding in Bahrain.

Apparently this isn't the first time the HMS Chiddingfold has done this to another minehunter. In April 2021 Chiddingfold struck HMS Penzance and was out of action for 3 months under repair.

I like the dude at the end of the video casually strolling into the camera shot while checking his phone like it’s BAU.

Well it just got a little easier to make flag in the Royal Navy.
