Re: Current & Future Escorts - General Discussion
And you can have the exactly same dipping sonar and processing system that is on merlin on wildcat now. The South Koreans bought it. Thales sell it as compact flash basically they used new materials, replaced hydraulics with electrics to reduce the weight and shrink. And a much shorter cable so no,...

Re: Type 31 Frigate (Inspiration Class) [News Only]
When told that the Iver Huitfeldt was a "proven" design during the Type 31 selection, I asked what exactly had been proved other than they could float and move?

Re: Current & Future Escorts - General Discussion
I don't think either are correct. The Navy intends the T31's to have a regular service life and the NSS doesn't mention Parker's idea of selling on "young" ships. Not all of his recommendations were adopted. "Not all" doing some very heavy lifting there Ron! We might all want mo...

Re: Ground Based Air Defence
Martlet is a Navy name for a Navy air to ground missile in Navy service. LMM is the name the Army uses for its surface to air missile. Please keep up. It's the same missile. If you're going to be that petty you should also have picked up that Starstreak is not the name that the Army uses either. Ac...

Re: F-35B Lightning (RAF & RN)
Joint Harrier was a disaster. Invincibles usually just deployed with helo's at that time.
One of the many "benefits" of Naval Aviation being owned by the RAF.

Re: Current & Future Escorts - General Discussion
20-25 year service life should be a pretty standard goal. They shouldn’t be doing mid life upgrades either. They should be big enough and simple enough with an open architecture command system to have relatively straight fwd capability insertion periodically at relatively short dry docking periods ...

Re: Current & Future Escorts - General Discussion
there is the fact that the T31's are not intended to have a long service life (in the RN). A) is that a fact B) is that realistic ? A good life plan would be 20 years with a mid life upgrade at 10 years pretty much written into the NSS - that the purpose of the type31 is to reduce service life to g...

Re: Ground Based Air Defence
The missile in service with France in the MANPADS role is Mistral, which is heat-seeking. Startreak (and Martlet) are command to line of sight guided and as such somewhat more capable against drones. So possibly that? Martlet is a Navy air to ground missile. I think you mean LMM. Very similar missi...
