Royal Saudi Navy commemorated the important addition to its fleet with the arrival of His Majesty's Ship (HMS) Hail

After been recently delivered from its Spanish production facility, the ship was welcomed with an official ceremony. Prominent military personnel attended the celebration, including Lieutenant General Fahad bin Abdullah Al-Ghofaily, the Commander of the Naval Forces, who seized the chance to explore and board the new vessel. 

Lieutenant General Al-Ghofaily was given a thorough briefing on HMS Hail's cutting-edge machinery and technology during his tour. His signing of the ship's logbook, which indicates that it is prepared to operate under the Saudi flag, is another indication of his involvement in the ship's capabilities. 

The commander also made time to speak with the crew and captain of HMS Hail, praising their work and training in Spain and emphasizing their vital role in safeguarding the strategic interests of the Kingdom and tackling local issues.

The third of five ships envisioned for the Sarawat Project, HMS Hail, further demonstrates the Kingdom's commitment to strengthening its naval forces. By providing the navy with cutting-edge naval vessels built for a range of combat roles, this initiative seeks to improve the navy's operational effectiveness and combat readiness.
