The Royal Navy’s frigate gap – how deep and how long will it last? - Navy Lookout

The RN is now in a position where ageing frigates are being decommissioned well before the replacements are available. There is little that can be done in the short term, but here we attempt to analyse if and when the situation might be recovered. Type 23s holding on Following our analysis of...

I post this article and image again with the news that the RN will be decommissioning another frigate this year ahead of schedule after numerous recent refits and possibly another due to personnel shortages. Which would drop them to 5 type 23s. And wonder about our own situation as we are just starting construction of the RCD

HMS Richmond to be decommissioned this year – Royal Navy down to six frigates - Navy Lookout

It was confirmed yesterday at a farewell Parade in her affiliated town of Richmond in Yorkshire, that the frigate is to be retired following 31-years of service. HMS Richmond was the last warship built by the great Swan Hunter shipyard on the Tyne and commissioned in 1995. The penultimate ships...

Another warship quietly withdrawn – Royal Navy now down to just 5 frigates - Navy Lookout

HMS Iron Duke has been stripped of her weapons and sensors and has not been to sea since October 2025, despite no formal decommissioning announcement being made. Her withdrawal from active service, less than three years after a £103M refit, raises uncomfortable questions about the Royal Navy's...

and nothing in Quebec. Our 3rd member of the team that is accepting beaucoup de dollars doesn't seem to be giving us much in return. Granted it took the other two a couple of years to start producing but one would hope that by now there would be at least one block under construction in Sorel.

 

[Oldgateboatdriver]

There are no facilities for shipbuilding left in Sorel. Davie is in Levis (across the river from Quebec city), and there is work already going on on some of the stuff for the Arctic icebreaker. The icebreakers for the US Government would never be built in Canada, though as part of ICE, some design work would be done here, mostly to bring things from Finland to North American standards and for operational systems, such as integrated bridge, etc. that Canadians are really good at.
