That(the seemingly French preference),and the thing about "going nuclear"(but could be wrong here. ;)  ) even the Australians don't go "there"(it's because it's very expensive and you"ll need a big budget to do so,and this is where things go "wrong",),besides the political will(of which there's...

You forgot the A-26 ER. :whistle: And i think(only a personal thought)that the Shortfin will be to big/expensive for Canada.

ndoDefence 2018: Damen Unveils 6000 Tons 'Omega' Frigate     November 2018 Naval News     Posted On Wednesday, 07 November 2018 17:05 By Xavier Vavasseur - Editor in Chief At IndoDefence 2018, the tri service defense exposition currently held in Jakarta, Indonesia, Dutch shipbuilding group...

probably these will replace the M-class frigate. :D

Just "go" for "Hollands",big enough,comfy,great radar,no teeth(but you can see everything that's commin towards you),lmao(just kidding)

Well,speaking of/for the Netherlands,our government,thinks  calling ships "Destroyers",sounds to aggressive,hence Frigate. :nod:(no matter what,ASW/ASuW or even AAW)

Euhm,Swedish-Dutch one. ;)

Tell that to the Taliban and ISIS,they hear the Warthog commin and see it and run like hell. They are better at CAS because the whole plane is designed with that task in mind,simple. -can take far more punishment then any other plane -have far greater firepower(GAU-8),wich is quite effective...

Some dual spot operations on board The Johan de Witt  (LPD)of the Dutch Navy. https://youtu.be/-nwgNXTsbY8

They got it out,after 8 hrs(from what i heared),no injuries.  ;) Fear it could be a writetoff.

It seems the new LSS "Vulcano"(unlucky name in this case)has had a fire,Bridge,machineroom and aft part of ship were on fire,while ship was lying in drydock to be outfitted for commission in the Italian Navy. :'( https://marineschepen.nl/nieuws/images/vulcano.jpg...

You are right,i misread the article,my bad. ::)

Final proposal is in,Canada will join,UK and Aystralia ist seems.  ;) But it will all be different versions.Low risk,not known yet,not an excisting design(go figure)and propably most costly option,but the newest design for sure.(ASW specialized ship)...

pretty much "sisters"of the De Zeven class. :nod:

There is a "deluge"system on board(VLS),means when it missfires within the tube,system automatically "floods"that canister(also on LCF and expect all modern frigates /destroyers)have that. ;)

Think that that will not be the only reason,but i could be wrong.(having SSN'S i mean),but it helps.Think it's a combination of what you have,training,experience, and how you are willing to use it:)

Well i'm not Canadian,but from what i heard,SSN will never happen.So what should happen(in my humble opinion)is that Canada should(really)buy 8 new subs(4 on east coast and 4 an west coast),but Canada/RCN will be lucky if they get 4 replacements when the time has come to buy/build new ones. ;)

Think it has to do with which material is used to build the sail,but could be wrong(maybe not strenghted/armoured)to do so.

Well,Tomahawk6,ain't gonna happen(design from The Netherlands),since the LCF isn't in it,didn't even compete,and our new Frigates(GP,but primairly ASW)are still in the final design stages.First ship will enter service somewhere around 2023-25.  :whistle:

Yes,it will be(from what i heard) about 70-75 mtrs long.And about 3000 tonns ,diameter 8 meters.Boat will have 2 decks.crewsize will be between 34-42.6 Torpedo tubes(0.53 meter) and 1 Multi Mission Lock(1.5 meter )so 7 tubes.The Multi Mission Lock is a special tube(A-26 has it too),will be used...
