RFA PROTEUS is currently undergoing conversion and will enter operations following commissioning and sea trials. She will be brought to readiness for operations as soon as practicable.

The Ready for Operations dates for the first Type 31 (HMS VENTURER) and Type 26 (HMS GLASGOW) have been released as they represent a milestone in a major acquisition programme.
