UK Armed Forces personnel have carried out a daring parachute operation to deliver critical medical support to Tristan da Cunha – Britain’s most remote inhabited Overseas Territory 🪂
The operation saw specialist paratroopers and military clinicians from 16 Air Assault Brigade jump from an RAF A400M, supported by Voyager, alongside the air drop of vital oxygen supplies and medical equipment.
With no airstrip and access only by boat, an airborne insertion was the fastest way to support the island following confirmation of a suspected Hantavirus case.
A joint military operation between @BritishArmy and @RoyalAirForceUK , our Armed Forces are ready to respond rapidly in support of urgent humanitarian and medical requirements across the globe.
Long range. Close fight. Ready.
