There was loads of complete off-topic stuff about gas prices (I think - only skimmed them long enough to think WTF has this got to do with T32) I only noticed when I came back to try and quote a summary of T26 programme development woes that I put hear to find it and it wasn't here. Just asking bec...

Deleted the last few off-topic posts. This is not the place to discuss the Red Sea crisis.

Hi Admins, It is possible to change the site, that after you login in, if you select a topic, it "automatically" takes you to the first unread post? Right now, you have to manually select "First Unread Post" - a bit annoying . Most other defence sites take you to the first unrea...

I'm going to lock this topic for now as there's too much speculation going on but I suppose that's to be expected for a ship that is still in its concept phase. If you have something relevant to post, feel free to PM me and I will unlock the topic. Until then, you can discuss the ship in the Curren...

Removed the last few posts of NickC's and tomuk's. I'm going to leave the Type 26 comment in place but please avoid any extended discussion about the Type 26 in this topic as we have other topics for that. PM me if you have any issues with this decision. Do not comment here.

Or just remove "news only" from the thread title. Maybe change to "Future AAW" to match the "Future ASW" title. I'd rather keep this topic so that news isn't buried under endless speculative posts but I'd be fine with a "Future AAW" topic if someone wished to...

We have separate topics for different discussions. What would be the point of a forum otherwise?

Feel free to PM me if you have an issue with moderation.

Deleted the last few posts. This is the topic for the Royal Navy's Type 26. The Aussie one is discussed here: viewtopic.php?t=19

I've merged your LRG topic with this one. Feel free to resume your discussion here.

Merged Hunter-class discussion from the Type 26 topic into this topic. Please report anything that I've moved over by mistake or forgotten. Thanks.

Please take all Australian Type 26 frigate discussion to the Australian Defence Forces topic linked above by SKB. I'll be moving the last few posts over to that topic. Thanks.

Deleted the last few posts. Type 31 news only from here on.

Type 31 news only in this topic folks.

Some of these posts are veering a little too off-topic now. Let's get back to posting news and related discussion.

Sorry folks, this topic is meant to be focused on the Royal Navy Type 26. Feel free to discuss the Australian and Canadian variants in these topics:
