Arriving at Plymouth, the Royal Navy’s HMS Enterprise has returned home after an epic 35-month deployment sailing across the globe and saving thousands of lives at sea.

In almost three years, she has steamed 150,000 nautical miles, visited 20 countries, and navigated four of the seven seas while conducting maritime security operations, protecting Britain’s economy and rescuing people in danger.

Enterprise was at the heart of operations to prevent people smuggling in the Mediterranean. She evacuated more than 200 British citizens from Libya, rescued 9,180 people attempting to undertake deadly crossings of the Mediterranean and destroyed 117 unseaworthy vessels used by people traffickers.
