HMS BANGOR was exercising again today in the Upper Firth, but sailed late this afternoon out through the Cumbrae Gap, and by this evening was sitting off the approaches to the Clyde. BANGOR is one of the eight 'Sandown' class of single role mine hunters, all of which have been based at Faslane since June 2006. Her 30mm Oerlikon gun, seen clearly on the foredeck, has a range of 10km and can fire up to 650 rounds per minute.Tuesday, 6 May 2008
