Twelve NATO Allies are participating in the NATO exercise Dynamic Mariner-21/Joint Warrior 21-2 (DYMR21) off the coast of United Kingdom now until 30 September. Exercise Dynamic Mariner tests NATO's Response Force Maritime Component (NRF/M) and interoperability with NATO forces, enhancing flexibility and improving the ability to work together among Allied nations.
The exercise brings together 20 surface ships, two submarines, seven maritime patrol aircraft and other air assets as well as personnel, from Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Latvia, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, United Kingdom and the United States.
DYMR21 is led by the NATO Maritime Command in coordination with Joint Tactical Exercise Planning Staff of Royal Navy.
The exercise also involves Standing NATO Maritime Group One (SNMG1) and Standing NATO Mine Countermeasures Group One (SNMCMG1), two of NATO's Standing Forces on active duty that contribute to the Alliance's collective defence on a permanent basis.
NATO's maritime strength lies in the ability of the Standing Forces and National Response Force elements to rapidly join with high readiness, high capability national forces and task groups. Regular training between these groups is a force multiplier and provides a collectively trained and interoperable capability that NATO can confidently deploy if necessary.
The NATO Response Force (NRF) is a highly ready and technologically advanced, multinational force made up of land, air, maritime and Special Operations Forces (SOF) components that the Alliance can deploy quickly, wherever needed.
