Singapore has deployed the RSS Endeavour as part of its latest
contribution to the multinational effort to help in the
reconstruction of Iraq.
With its crew of 180 personnel, the Landing Ship Tank will be
stationed in the Gulf for 3 months.
It'll provide logistics support for coalition vessels and
helicopters, protect the waters around key oil terminals as well as
conduct patrols and boarding operations.
The SAF had earlier deployed 2 LSTs, a C-130 transport aircraft and
2 KC-135 tanker aircraft in support of Iraq's reconstruction
efforts. - CNA
