Agreed but announcements made about T31 since your post have made me slightly less disappointed about the T26 numbers. I would still like more T26 but at least T31 does seem to be evolving closer to what could be called a credible frigate now that it has been announced that it will be getting a Mk31 silo with many people claiming that will be 32 x Mk31 although I'm not sure that 32 number has been confirmed. Even if the Mk41 silo is a replacement for the initially planned Sea Ceptor silos rather than being in addition to it a single 32 x Mk41 silo could still host for instance 64 x quad-packed Sea Ceptor in half of the silo with 16 x Mk41 still left over for heavier stuff. That on its own is a respectable load-out and if T31 also gets NSM cross-decked from retired T23s then even better. This sort of T31 spec plus the T26 plus the Sea Ceptor upgrade for T45 does, in my opinion, deliver a pretty capable frigate/destroyer fleet especially if the T31/T32 (whatever T32 will be) gets built up to the rumoured 10 vessels.

Same with Australia. They have seriously delayed the first ship to be built to 2033. Although theirs not knowing what the varent armament they will give the hunter class (type 26) they will go with till sometime 2024. BAE Australia ship builders have given Australia 3 varent armament class. 1. 32. Cell MK41 VLS with multimission bay with full ASW capability, including toward away sonar system. 2. 96 cell MK41 VLS no multimission bay and some ASW equipment removed Although can still be equipped with topedo sized drones that can be stored inside the helicopter bay without taken up room for the helicopter for ASW detection. Also, change to some of the electric power and engine and fuel tank upgrade 3. 128 cell MK41 VLS changes include the same as the varent 2 but no front 5 inch gun. Australia chose missile ESSM evolved sea sparrow as main armament to protect the ship.. strike missiles such as SM2 SM6 NSM and tomahawks. Future add ons. Hypersonic stand of missile. Including Asrock ant submarine missile. And LSRAM missile. And Nukla decoy systems. SM3 maybe another option Guns. 2x 30mm guns. 2x phalanx close in weapon system guns. And (5-inch main gun. 136 cal) 6 Torpedo tubes. 4x4 NSM anti ship missile tubes. Aegis combat systems. SAAB interface computers CEFAR-2 electronic scan aray radar system. The general purpose of the hunter class is ASW but will be used for multi-purpose use. So it may be used for the same role as the destroyers. For air and land attack also. So be interesting what Australia government will decide on varent of armament. I think they will go with option 2. Armament. And build additional heavily armed corvettes to make up the ASW fleet So basically, Australia type 26 hunter class will be destroyers. I think they should change the name to attack class

The mighty Montrose there

simple math here, detecting mach 3 targets at 22km max distance gives less than 22 secs of flight time inbound from max distance for the human interaction to act. That is detection, establishing an actual real target and accurate course/position + relative to ship, intent, and get the proper orders/permissions for action against. If the ship and ship's company are already at GQ and 'Battle stations manned' posture, maybe this is a plausible doable defense as it would give CIC around 8 secs or less to turn CIWS to auto and get guns on target, but this would most likely eliminate any other defensive options as I doubt there is enough time to activate chaff or flare systems and get CIWZ in its proper settings + locked into the target. As a perimeter sentry, this would be a major deficiency in future tech naval combat area tech dependencies.

@@hdmccart6735 I think the strategy for these frigates is to be targets and to be token disposable frames. Even their speed suggests they are to make a presence without intent on fulfilling the threat such a presence was supposed to mean. They should be good for border interdiction missions, and anti-pirate missions, but otherwise they are not much greater than a mobile sensor buoy. Fleet on Fleet action they don't seem to add capability. But when a bean counter wishes to state how many frames they have, they will be able to tout a few extra. The US FFG62 is completely different. It isn't bound to mission by keel build like the British frigate, as it is configurable to do any task at just a reload away, and is built to basically provide the same capabilities as a DDG but with just fewer rounds to do the tasks. It pretty much carries the same sensors and combat systems as the Spurance class. The US went with a Frigate it can put on escort duty or interchange it within the Carrier Battle Group as extensions to its sensor layout and ranges. I don't get why the British, who could have nearly everything the US Navy could, would choose to go the route of such a less capable and less flexible option. As to your survivability point, I watched a frigate I was stationed to back in the 90s get absolutely pounded by weapon systems that were thought of being the death of ships like it. The new littoral ships notwithstanding, the rest of the fleet I think is much more survivable than given credit. The changes made to the new frigate from its Italian cousin suggest the US learned its lesson and they have returned to making a ship with a chin, without all that bulk that the Russian ships use to get their reputations.

@@regarded9702 I firmly believe these are tokens. Their total build layout just says sponge. Low-range air sensors, bell sonar, slow, with long-range econo benefit. I was originally disturbed to see the US buying a non-US Frigate until the specs started getting released. The US Frigate is basically a mini Destroyer. This should have been the way the British went as well. Side by Side comparison just shows how the British are getting hosed as you see them paying almost $0.5B more per unit, and that is only compared to the US's 3-unit purchase, as the per unit cost will drop below $1B/unit when they approve the next 7 to round out the 10 unit reserve already allotted for. The plan is to buy 15-25 units which will drive the costs per unit down even more.

I feel that the RN should have procured at least 16 Type 26s given the increasing Submarine threat in the North Sea and particularly around the GUKIC Gap. Instead of wasting more and more money on separate procurement programs to produce small numbers of woefully underarmed vessels like Type 31 and future Type 32 frigates, the MOD and the Treasury should have just accepted that the RNs long standing ASW mission is one of the most critical to UK’s maritime security, and so prioritised as much funding as was required for not compromising the RN’s ability to conduct ASW operations. I feel that other than maintaining the UK’s CASD, Anti-Submarine Warfare should be of second most importance, rather than trying to perform a compromised Carrier Strike capability in which we are still unable to operate a fully sovereign capable air group for the foreseeable future.

Looking forward to the 15 frigates Canada has ordered to enter service, with AEGIS and the SPY-7 radar

Given that a ships usefulness in combat these days, is measured by it's ability to launch numerous vertical missiles against a saturation attack. The inability to reload those cells at sea, means a flotilla leaves port with a finite number of missiles of all types. Needless to say, the loss of a single vessels with so many VLS cells, would be a terrible blow to the ability of a carrier group to defend itself. The ideal solution would be double or triple the number of Type 26 or similarly equipped frigates. Permitting six or even eight frigate escorts per carrier group. With others available in reserve to relieve those on station. Also the CSG would be accompanied by three, four or more destroyers and a couple of fleet nuclear submarines. Further increasing the number of defensive and offensive missiles available. Thinking out of the box, there is the often talked about arsenal ship concept to consider. Where a manned or unmanned simple vessels packed with hundreds of VLS cells. Follows the carriers everywhere! With its vast missile compliment fully integrated into the fleet layered defence system and controlled by other vessels.

Because it's not just the missiles and the VLS cells, it's the radars and combat management systems too. Type 45 already has these (and better ones than any additions to the carriers would ever have) so makes sense to add any extra missiles to the destroyers that are better suited to carrying them because for the added cost of duplicating the fire control systems on the carrier, you'd have to sacrifice some amount of the missiles, meaning you have fewer missiles overall, so more likely to be overwhelmed in the first place. Plus there are other small things, like if you actually had to fire a missile from the carrier, you'd have to pause all flight operations and do a FOD walk to make sure there isn't any debris from the launch on the deck before you could launch or recover any aircraft or risk losing an aircraft. I'd much rather have EW systems like AN/SLQ-32 the USN has on all their ships to defeat incoming missiles, but they're much less flashy than missiles, so don't get the recognition they should.

The Hunters problems are being rectified and will be awesome ships when delivered, delivery dates stay the same or slightly to the right. I'm afraid we will upgrade the ANZACs and await the Hunters. Would have loved to see 3 spanish frigates added ASAP to the RAN.

The underwater sonar dome? It's flooded, it's merely streamlining over the sonar system to improve slipperiness through the water meaning a lot less drag and higher speeds for the same power. Since it's full of water, any pressure from the outside just meets the pressure from the inside, and since water is incompressible there's no movement in the dome.

Its an asw frigate without a long range search radar, meaning sea ceptor, fc/asw and posibly an asroc is all it will be equipped with and its hull is specifically designed to be acoustically quiet at great cost, making it a aaw frigate would be an expensive waste, and its also too small to be used as a base for the type 83 as you probably want more vls cells than 64. The better option to supplement the the type 45 is actually the type 31, just build it to Iver Huifeldt specs- 16 nsm or cannister lanched fc/asw, 32 aster 30, 24 sea ceptor, sampson and s1850 or artisan

@@lukeallison3713 It's more than just an anti-submarine frigate. It carries multiple strike length VLS tubes for tomahawk missiles. And if it's operating as part of a task group, it's going to be working with destroyers at an aircraft carrier, so it would make sense to have longer arrange missiles as well. A dozen CAMM-ER to supplement the shorter range version makes sense. Canada and Australia certainly need more vertical launch tubes as their versions will be much more than anti-submarine frigates. The Canadian surface combatant will be the only large surface combatant in the Canadian fleet. The Australian version will have l band and s band radars as well as sborter-ranged X-Band radars

@@ronmaximilian6953 Unfortunately, though it is definitely a little bit undergunned for its role (more multi purpose than type 26), the aussie variant is currently having significant weight problems linked with using ceafar and other indigenous tech integrated to aegis , while the canadian more with spy-7 LRDR is not having the same problems. The best answer for the aussie variant is probably some amidships mk 56 launchers for essm, 12x2 essm would free up the 32 cell mk 41 for 24 sm, 8 asroc as an example or tomahawks if needed. The canadian vessel is definitely in more of a predicament. It needs to improve significantly in both aaw and asw performance from its predesescors (tribal II aaw with 29 mk 41, all for sm2 Halifax asw. I think 48 mk 41 cells is a good number, 32 sm, 8 asroc, 8 tomahawk and 12x2 essm in mk 56 (current plan is 24 sea ceptor, essm in mk 41 which will mean not enough or no sm). The british variant could also do with a modest upgunning, the 48 'mushroom farms' can all take camm-er anyway but the ship as it is can't really fully utilise anything with more range with that. 32 cells and a commitment to an asroc type weapon would be nice, note tomahawk has not been announced and will not be needed as fc/asw is designed for that role as well as anti shipping. 16 asroc,16 fc/asw would be great. Ultimately the design philosophy of the type 26 is 1-ASW, 2-Anti shipping and land attack, 3- AAW and so it is only expected to defend itself although sea ceptor is a great weapon both for that task and task group defence

Using artisan throws away any energy weapon tracking capability for defence against hypersonic weapons.
