MV Asterix, a Resolve Class Naval Support Ship, arrived in Halifax, Nova Scotia on Wednesday 27 December 2017, after completing its conversion from a civilian container ship.
Owned by Federal Fleet Services, Asterix will be leased to the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) and commence service from 1 January 2018. She will be operated by a mixed crew and remain in service until HMCS Protecteur, the first of two new AORs based on the Berlin Class replenishment ship, commissions in 2021.
