Seems to a Theodore Tugboat problem

I wonder of our Chinese Friends/competitors/financiers are thinking the same thing. "What?? Your P-8 saw our ship where?"

There seems to my very untrained eye to be more plumbing already installed in the lower right Image. It looks to be pretty intricate work and ready for connection for other blocks. I was hoping to learn from you.

The Images seem to show more pre fitting than I was expecting for a first of Class. What might our more experienced commenters say? Might there be some very close BAE supervision for Fraser?

Wow , the man seems like he has a plan and the grace while in the mouth of the former Lion.

"Just some good ole boys, ain't doing no harm?"

So all the TAPV's will go to 33 then?

I would argue Carney will need as many Conservatives as he can get since he IS a Conservative that has wrenched the Steering wheel of the Liberal Bus from the socialist coalition that Trudeau and Singh ran. What Liberal PM would deliver and actually spend 8.74 Billion in EXTRA Defence funds in...

Well there are the Newfoundland Ferries. Ice strengthened and about 2000+ lane metres with at least a high volume galley on board. Dash to Latvia then North or vice versa

What about Passive sonars. I can see the three Coast Guard fisheries research class quietly deploying a giant underwater ear. BTW the Nappaaluk has arrived in Bedford.

Or the CAF could just tender it out to say a Canadian company called Float. I take a picture of the receipt I just generated and fill in about four subsets of information such as taxable or not, what superior charge it goes to and done. Tales literally 1 minute. All electronic and very secure...

I can see their main jobs being like a Radar Picket ship of WW2 with crew workup responsibilities and flag presence in say the Caribbean off Newf or maybe even the Med or off Africa. I would not be surprised to see its designation become a DE as a true Destroyer escort.

I wonder, as time moves on, that DND see's this hull as a chance to allocate some to the Coast Guard as a bridge to further combine Naval CG cultures. Pay the civilians a little more to do security and police and patrol work. Extra hulls to add the, fitted for but not with, should things bonk.

I think we Canadians have supercharged our ability, no National sport, of chopping the Tall Poppy by absolutely not giving two FUCKS about Trump or the MAGA twits that elected him. It has confirmed in many Canadians minds the worst of what many Canadians think of Americans. Boomers leading the...

I was contacted by the Conservatives for a donation shortly after the last election. I asked the guy on the phone why Jenni was still around after losing four elections but Telford and Butts moved on after winning four. Umm aaah gee that's a god point. They have not phoned back.

Oh boy , fire that off in the Public Gardens Titanic pond and watch the Internet fire up.

Yes that is true the Tank farm is very active as most of Nova Scotia's petroleum needs are landed there. The old Refinery footprint is completely cleared of its old use and left with old concrete and nothing else. Housing or human habitation should never go there. Submarine repair......

Harper also ordered DND to reduce the bloated Officer Corps after Afghanistan. Don't think that happened so the PMO does what it can. The Money. So he did and was able to cover it by attempting to balance the budget. How many times did Trudeau go North with the Forces? Harper did a number of...

Did he do that after telling Biden No TWICE over Haiti? Did he do that after receiving a couple of one way chats from NATO allies? Did he do that after being asked "what's your number" by Trump. Or did he start the money after Anand came up with a plan especially from General Kennie's staff...

I wonder if the Trudeau Famiily and Chretien Military disinterest is a Quebec thing or a Liberal thing. It feels like Canada is saying goodbye to the last fifty Years of Federal obsession with Social justice and internal belly button gazing. To bring the Axworthy/Rock arm of the Liberals to the...
