oorlogsschip in actieve militaire dienst


Explanation:
ik denk dat het meer dan enkel zeewaardig is

n the instant case, HMCS Okanagan is dry docked at the SRU(A) in order to have the civilian
employees carry out a complete refit of the vessel. HMCS Okanagan is a commissioned warship,
therefore a military vessel in service, with defensive and offensive capabilities.

Based at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, HMS Victory is still a commissioned warship which means that in theory it could actually be sent to war!

Ik heb hier wel over getwijfeld, maar vindt "in actieve militaire dienst" toch iets meer op personen slaan.
