RFA Regent (A486)
RFA Regent A486 was an ammunition, explosives, and stores supply ship in the 'Royal Fleet Auxiliary'. She was built by Harland and Wolff,〔 commissioned in 1967 and took part in the Falklands War.
==Her part in the Falklands War==
After taking on stores at Glen Douglas and Plymouth, RFA ''Regent'' sailed from Plymouth on 19 April 1982, arriving in the Total Exclusion Zone...(TEZ) on 8 May. She spent much of her time with the Carrier Group, replenishing ships in the group, day and night.
Surviving at least one Exocet attack, the most publicised was on May 25, Argentina's National Day. She was North East of East Falkland, having just taken part (or just completing) a 'Vertrep' ('Vertical Replenishment'... a helicopter stores transfer) and / or 'RAS' (Replenishment at Sea) with the 'SS Atlantic Conveyor' (with whom she had been sailing the same track with all day), when the 'Air Raid Warning Red Alarm' sounded, and the two ships took evasive action.
'RFA Regent' carried on supplying the Task Force until the third week of August, becoming one of the longest serving ships that took part in the Conflict. She eventually arrived back in the UK at (Rosyth, in Scotland) on 15 September, after 148 days at sea, and replenishing most of the ships in the RN at least once. She had sailed more than 35,000 nautical miles.
