Bahamas:
HMBS Nassau is one of two patrol boats, with HMBS Bahamas (P-60), operated by the Bahamian military. Like her sister ship, Nassau is armed with several heavy Browning M2 .50 caliber machine guns and a light auto cannon. She is commonly used for capturing illegal immigrants (particularly from Haiti), anti-piracy and smuggling missions, hurricane relief, search and rescue, routine patrols, and assisting maritime police.

USN:
USS Frederick (Armored Cruiser #8, ex-Maryland) Frozen spray ice coats the ship's forward eight-inch guns, forecastle and superstructure after operations at sea, circa 1917. Location unknown.
“A Critical Situation” Screened color print of an oil painting by Burnell Poole. It depicts USS Stockton (DD-73) narrowly averting a collision with a large troopship she was escorting in thick weather during 1918.

Netherlands:
Submarine HNLMS Zeeleeuw in dry dock. All four boats of the class were modernized between 2013-2020 as part of the CUP (Capability Upkeep Program). New Combat Management Systems and a Super High Frequency (SHF) communication system were installed. The pressure hull was refurbished, as well as the air monitoring/conditioning systems among other improvements.
The initial lifespan of these boats was thought to be around 25 years, however as the class operated mainly in shallow waters the hull was in better condition then originally anticipated. With the CUP the lifespan was raised to 35 years.
With the CUP the four Walrus Class boats can operate to the fullest of their capabilities before being replaced somewhere around the 2027-2031 timeline. - The boats were commissioned between 1990 and 1994.
