Side by side. From start to finish. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
On 9/11, the world changed—and the Royal Marines answered the call alongside our US partners.
That bond, forged in combat, remains the bedrock of our alliance today.
We remember those lost 25 years ago and all who fell.
On the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks, the United Kingdom remembers the near 3,000 people who lost their lives on that terrible day, including 67 British citizens.
We pay tribute to all those affected including frontline emergency workers, who continue to confront the threat of terrorism and put their lives at risk to protect others. We honour the courage and sacrifice of members of the Armed Forces who have lost their lives in the fight against terrorism.
Britain stood with our American friends a quarter of a century ago. We stand with you today. 🇬🇧🇺🇸

Cold water. Hard miles. Total precision.
UKCF operations aren't just about the strike; they’re about the silent approach in the world’s harshest environments. Integrating with submarine platforms allows for unparalleled stealth and reach in the High North.

The standard is non-negotiable.
Ex Hyperion Storm is the final gate. No more rehearsals, only results.

NATO's northern shield is ready.
