Comment(s):

The Royal Netherlands Navy (RNLN) fielded three squadrons through its Marine Luchtvaartdienst (MLD - Naval Air Service). 320 squadron was deactivated and its P-3C Orion aircraft sold to Germany and Portugal.
On July 10, 2008 the Defence Helicopter Command was activated and the RNLN / MLD transferred 7 and 860 squadrons to the RNLAF.
