    OSLO FJORD (February 12, 2018) A crew member aboard Royal Navy mine countermeasures vessel HMS Cattistock lowers a Seafox remotely operated vehicle (ROV) into the water to investigate a possible mine from World War II in the waters of the Oslo Fjord. Standing NATO Mine Countermeasures Group One (SNMCMG1) ships HMS Cattistock and HNLMS Mercuur are working with Royal Norwegian Navy minesweeper HNoMS Rauma and Royal Norwegian Navy mine hunter HNoMS Måløy to find and neutralize mines from previous conflicts in a Historical Ordnance Disposal operation.

    An underwater photograph showing a large corroded cylindrical metal object being lifted by rigging lines attached to lift bags or buoys visible at the top of the frame. The object appears heavily encrusted with marine growth and rust, suggesting it has been submerged for a significant period. The image captures what appears to be an underwater salvage or recovery operation.
    A naval vessel marked 'M342' is underway in a fjord or bay during winter conditions, with snow-covered hills and residential buildings visible in the background. In the foreground, a small inflatable rubber boat (RHIB or Zodiac-type) carries two personnel, suggesting a coordinated maritime operation. The scene appears to be a military exercise or patrol in a Scandinavian waterway.
    A gray naval vessel with hull number M342 is navigating through partially icy, calm waters under an overcast sky. The ship appears to be a mine countermeasures vessel or patrol craft, showing signs of cold-weather operation including icicles visible on the bow. The background suggests a harbor or coastal area with trees and port infrastructure faintly visible.
    This is an underwater ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) camera feed showing a close-up view of what appears to be a heavily encrusted underwater object, likely a shipwreck or large submerged structure covered in marine growth. The footage is from a training mission conducted on 15 February 2018, operated from vessel KNM RAUMA. The HUD overlay displays navigational data including heading (203.0°), depth (035.3m), altitude (000.3m), and mission time.
    This is an underwater ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) camera feed showing a close-up view of a large submerged object covered in marine growth and biofouling. The object appears to be a rounded, encrusted structure — possibly a mine, buoy, or submerged vessel component — filmed during a training mission. The footage was captured on 15 February 2018 at 11:43:03 from the platform KNM Rauma.
