The training has been given in order to prepare the Ship’s Company for an upcoming Operational deployment later this year.
The final piece of preparation starts later this month when Montrose will undergo a planned Fleet Time Support Period in Devonport.
This period will ensure that the ship’s propulsion, generation and weapon systems are in the best of order prior to being deployed for 6 months.

Military experience
James Parkin joined the Royal Navy immediately after university, graduating from BRNC Dartmouth in April 1999. After training appointments in various MCMVs and frigates, and professional training at HMS Dryad, his first complement appointment was the Navigating Officer of HMS Berkeley in January 2000.
Following Initial Staff training, and Fighter Controller course, he was appointed to HMS Manchester as FC1 in late 2001, a job that also included an attachment to Horse Guards as the RN liaison officer and watch officer for Operation FRESCO, the national firefighters’ strike.
Leaving HMS Manchester in 2003, Parkin took up the role of OiC of Sussex URNU and Commanding Officer of the unit’s associated patrol vessel, HMS Ranger. After promotion to Lieutenant Commander, he next proceeded to Principal Warfare Officer course in 2006, from which he was awarded the Commodore’s Warfare Prize for the top student of the year, and subsequently conducted an 18 month appointment as PWO and Operations Officer of HMS Somerset.
For his second PWO tour, Parkin joined the Maritime Battlestaff in October 2008 as SOO to COMUKTG, during which time he helped set up the EU Anti-Piracy HQ for Operation Atalanta, served as the maritime desk officer in Multinational Force-Iraq HQ in Baghdad, and deployed on numerous amphibious, joint and maritime exercises.
Selected for promotion in May 2010, Commander Parkin proceeded on Advanced Command and Staff Course at JSCSC Shrivenham, where he finished as the highest placed Royal Navy student, and was awarded the Curtiss Prize for Campaigning. Subsequently, he acted as the Chief of Staff of the Navy Command Review programme for 8 months, helping to design the manpower, processes and organisational structures for the Royal Navy of the next 10 years.

The Sport-a in Gibraltar goes like Montrose thought it oughta'14/10/12
The first port visit of Cougar 12 saw the biggest group of Royal Navy Warships berthed in the port of Gibraltar for many years. As part of the visit a host of sporting events had been arranged for the ships’ companies and embarked forces to pit their skills against each other, as well as against other units based on the Rock. The medley included Football, Rugby, Netball and of course the famous Rock Race.

HMS Montrose Supports Cougar Training in the South-West09/10/12
HMS Montrose has been playing a small – and unusual – part in training for the Navy’s key autumn deployment to the Mediterranean. The frigate, more used to hunting submarines, served as the springboard for stealthy missions by commandos, reconnoitring Cornish and Devon beaches ready for the main assault.

WEAPONS SYSTEM
Weapons System
-
4.5Mk8 Gun
medium calibre weapon system
If you're looking for punch and firepower, then the 4.5in main gun, found on the forecastle of all the Royal Navy's destroyer's frigates and destroyers, is the most obvious provider. Even in an age of missiles, there's still a need for a weapon to pulverise enemy positions and demoralise the foe - and the 4.5in gun has done so in the Falklands and Iraq. The gun can fire up to two dozen high explosive shells weighing more than 40kg (80lbs) at targets more than a dozen miles away - and nearly 18 miles if special extended-range shells are used. In various forms, the 4.5in has been the Navy's standard medium gun since before World War 2, embodied today by the Mk8 which has been in service since the early 1970s. There are two types of Mk8 used by the Fleet. The older Mod 0 (with its curved turret), which is gradually being replaced, and the angular Mod 1 (nicknamed Kryten after the robot on the sci-fi sitcom Red Dwarf) which is harder for enemy radar to pick up. The main purpose of the gun is Naval Gunfire Support – artillery bombardment of shore targets. In this role the gun is capable of firing the equivalent of a six-gun shore battery. The Mk8 can also be used effectively against surface targets at sea.
-
Harpoon
Anti-ship missile System
Harpoon is the long-range lance of the Type 23 frigate, capable of destroying enemy ships far beyond the horizon. Fitted to all Type 23 Frigates, the Boeing (formerly McDonnell Douglas) Harpoon is a sophisticated anti-ship missile capable of striking at targets more than 80 miles away. Harpoon uses a combination of inertial guidance and active radar homing to attack its prey. Cruising at Mach 0.9 and carrying a large high explosive warhead it is powered by a lightweight turbojet, but is accelerated at launch by a booster rocket.
-
Helicopter
Airbourne weapons System
The Merlin Mk1 have been in service with the Fleet Air Arm since the late 1990s and, after thorough testing and evaluation, the helicopters have been on the front line since 2000. Our job is to find – and if necessary destroy – enemy submarines using our state-of-the-art sonar bouys which we drop into the ocean and Sting Ray torpedoes. Beyond searching for submarines, we carry out traditional maritime helicopter duties: anti-piracy/drug-running patrols, surveillance and reconnaissance, search and rescue, and passenger and load transfers

Sea Wolf
Surface to Air Missile system
Seawolf is the shield of Britain’s frigate fleet against air attack. Defending Britain's frigate fleet against air attack, the Seawolf missile has been in service for more than 30 years and has proven itself in action in the Falklands. Unlike Sea Viper and Sea Dart, Seawolf is intended to defend an individual ship rather than a task group, engaging aircraft or sea-skimming missiles. It is fired either from a vertical silo on Type 23 frigates, and guided on to its target courtesy of a tracking system on the ship. The original Seawolf had a very limited range of just six miles, but the frigate fleet is in the middle of receiving the latest, more potent version of the missile system. It means that Seawolf can track – and destroy – a target the size of a cricket ball travelling at three times the speed of sound well beyond the limit of the original missile. If the system was placed in the middle of London, it could track its target over the M25 and knock it out of the sky over the North Circular - and the whole action would last under 20 seconds. Each Type 23 frigate carries out at least two Seawolf firings on ranges off the UK coast before each deployment.
-
DLH Decoy Launch System
active decoy system
The DLH system is carried by the Navy's frigates and is designed to lure attacking anti-ship missiles away from the unit.
-
Torpedo
Magazine torpedo launch System (MTLS)
Dropped by Lynx and Merlin helicopters, and launched from the MTLS, Sting Ray is a small lightweight torpedo designed to destroy enemy submarines. It weighs seven times less than torpedoes fired by submarines, racing through the water at more than 50mph at targets half a dozen miles away, delivering a 100lb explosive charge powerful enough to punch through the double hulls of modern submarines. Once Sting Ray is fired it uses the information provided initially by the helicopter and gathers fresh intelligence on its target using its sonar and onboard software which is designed not to be fooled by the enemy submarine’s decoys.

HMS Montrose crest in Bermuda 30/4/2012 It is a tradition for any military ship from around the world that visits Bermuda to leave the crest of that ship upon the wall in the dock yard. As HMS Montrose has visited Bermuda before, but some years ago. The ships crest was already on the wall. So today the date was placed under the crest instead of painting a crest on the wall. HMS Montrose is deployed as the Atlantic Patrol Task (South) Ship between October 2011 and May 2012. Her primary role is to protect and promote interests in the South Atlantic by maintaining a continuous presence in the region.
