German warships will make a rare visit to San Diego Bay on Tuesday before heading to the Hawaiian islands for Rim of the Pacific, the world’s largest biennial maritime warfare exercise.
Nearly 30 countries and 40 surface ships will participate in RIMPAC, including many Navy vessels homeported in San Diego. The war games, which begin on June 26, also will feature three submarines, 14 national land forces and more than 150 aircraft.
The German Navy says the 492-foot frigate Baden-Wurttemberg and the 570-foot combat support ship Frankfurt am Main have been chosen for Tuesday’s visit to San Diego.
The arrival time of the German warships has not been announced, but a media advisory indicates that the vessels will reach the docks in the morning.
