Interview with the commanding officer of French Navy FREMM Frigate Languedoc. FS Languedoc (D653) along with FS Provence (D652) and Task Force 473 (the French CSG) received at the end of 2021 the Hook'em award from the U.S. Navy's 6th Fleet.
=====================
The “Hook’em Award” rewards Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) excellence. It is presented quarterly to a unit supporting U.S. Navy’s 6th Fleet (also known as US Naval Forces Europe) which has demonstrated superior ASW readiness, proficiency, and operational impact.
The two Aquitaine-class FREMM frigates, operating under the tactical command of CTF 473 have demonstrated their excellence in ASW, as observed by the U.S. Navy during joint maneuvers in the Mediterranean Sea in recent months.
The commanding officer tells us what led to this recognition of ASW expertise for the second straight year. We also discussed FREMM Frigates and their equipment, including the CAPTAS-4 variable depth sonar.
