HNLMS Amsterdam

HNLMS Amsterdam (A836) is the last replenishment ship serving with the Royal Netherlands Navy. The Amsterdam entered service in 1995.

HNLMS Amsterdam deployed to the Middle East as part of Operation Enduring Freedom during 2005/2006 and provided assistance to two American naval vessels after a battle they had fought with pirates on March 18, 2006.

The Amsterdam was assigned in December 2010 to the coast of Côte d'Ivoire in order to assist in a possible evacuation of European Union citizens from the country in the wake of unrest after the 2010 presidential election.[2]

The Amsterdam is scheduled to be decommissioned in 2014, when the new Joint Logistic Support Ship Karel Doorman is scheduled to be commissioned.
