Tide-class tanker
The ''Tide''-class tanker is a class of fast fleet tanker currently under construction for the Royal Fleet Auxiliary of the United Kingdom. Originally known under the project name Military Afloat Reach and Sustainability tankers (MARS), they will be tasked with providing fuel, food, fresh water, ammunition and other supplies to Royal Navy vessels around the world. The vessels were ordered on 22 February 2012 in an order worth £452 million. The ships were designed by BMT Defence Services in Bath, England but will be constructed in South Korea and have a projected in-service date of 2016.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=BBC )〕〔 In January 2015, the keel was laid for the first vessel, ''Tidespring'', whilst the steel was cut for the second vessel, ''Tiderace''.
In July 2013, the Norwegian government selected a 26,000 tonne variant of the AEGIR design as the Navy's next logistic and support vessel; if a contract is confirmed, the new tanker will also be built in South Korea and is scheduled for service entry in October 2016.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=TR Defence )〕
==Design==
The four new vessels will be over 200 metres long and displace more than 37,000 tonnes. Based on BMT Defence Services' 'AEGIR' tanker concept, they are designed from the outset to be more environmentally friendly, producing lower carbon dioxide emissions and being more fuel efficient. They will be among the most environmentally friendly warships ever built.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Defence Management )〕 The ships will be double-hulled to prevent or reduce environmental pollution from oil spills if damage is sustained to the outer hull, complying with international regulations and allowing operation around the globe. The four vessels will replace the RFA's two remaining ''Rover'' and the recently decommissioned ''Leaf'' class tankers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Defence Management )〕
Replenishment will be provided from three abeam Replenishment at sea (RAS) stations for diesel oil, aviation fuel and fresh water. The vessels will have a flight deck and will provide a vertical replenishment at sea capability.〔
