God I feel old, I remember when these Dive tenders entered service, they suffered stability issues, which seemed to afflict so many government vessels of the time.

A submarine rescue ship would be closer to what HMCS CORMORANT looked like.

Just as an aside, the major shipyards in NSS aren't actually allowed to bid for these. That is a deliberate contract requirement intended to ensure that smaller stuff that a lot of yards that didn't qualify for the NSS would still have access to work, and not compete with the heavily subsidized NSS yards.

Hell of an advantage it would be to be able to land companies at a time with forward logistical support built in in the high arctic. Noone else could do that.

I was looking at the Seaspan web site yesterday. They mentioned that they were ahead of schedule, expanding the workforce, and entirely Canadian built. In fact they very unsubtly mentioned it several times.

A new HMCS Cormorant could be manned in a similar fashion as Asterix or the RFA model, reducing the strain on navy personal. Have it tasked with undersea infrastructure inspection/protection and sub rescue.

for a price I am certain that Trump would rent out the equipment to us.
