Tasman corvette looks a good option, flight 3 DDG hits the aesthetic even if not yet a thing. Hunter AWD proposal from BAE is also welcome, but unfortunately the extra VLS come at the cost of ASW capability. Gibbs and Cox offer looks a bit half baked right now. Suggest reduce the ASM to 16 and bring back the deck gun. Better display model wouldnt hurt either.

The British had ship Rates, the Americans high low. Either you build a war fleet and a peace fleet, one is for warfighting the other for patrols, anti piracy, escort, intercpt, foreign port visits during peace time. Or you build the best ship you can and that is a 1st rate or high value asset, however they're expensive in money, material and manpower so you already can't built many and you already can't afford to lose one so you build a cheaper smaller version that you can afford to pay for, build, man, arm and possibly lose. Ford Class would be 1st Rate by Royal Navy rating and its a tier 1 high value asset by USN doctrine classification. The Nimitz would be 2nd Rate as its the last generation and if the USN builds fleet carriers or light carriers then they would be considered 3rd Rates or tier two high value assets. A new frigate designed to be truly competitive would be a 1st rate Frigate or tier 1 but if you built a light Frigate, Sloop or Corvette the that would be rated 3rd Rate and tier 2.

​ @gamingrex2930 I found it ironic - even though to be fair and objective the strategic circumstances we find ourselves in now vs the environment back in 2007 - but reading the opinion piece from the November 'Defence/Nval Litout' in The Australian which was in last weeks "Australian" newspaper on Cup Day - but previous Head of RAN, Admiral Shackleton penned a excellent piece about the appalling lack of VLS capabilities on the current RAN fleet vs two + decades ago when RAN's VLS Lannister was a LOT bigger. When the decision was made to select the DDG replacement the only options in the end were: 1. an 'evolved' Arleigh Burke called 'Baby Burke"; and 2. the Navantia designed 105 - the last of class from their F100 run Why Russell/RAN never bothered to push a straight up MOTS/FMS AB Flight 2 was due to fretting about crew size, with Shackleton as Head of Navy the main 'fretted', he was extremely worried we could not crew a Burke. It is arguably worth pointing out that then Prime Minister Howard wanted the Burke option, Howard was adamant that RAN should buy the Burke. However - and without sounding grandiose - many Australians do not know as they were not part of the process, and remember these discussions are carried out mostly by the National Security Committee of Cabinet - NSCC - other 'actors' are always involved when it comes to massive defence procurements, the Dept of Treasury is a critical actor in all these decisions - they are, as my late Father called them "the men in brown suits", but Treasury is one of the - what we refer to in Canberra - 'co-ordinating Depts' and they have enormous power. The problem at the time, once a Flight 2A was removed as an option, was you had what was as fact x1 mature design + in the water IOC. Against what was a 'orphan class' of ship that had not been built. So - Howard in hindsight should have just over-ridden EVERYONE involved and said "we are going with a straight Burke buy, end of story". The Spanish design, a imo/many also held the opinion, small 7,000 tonne ship with only x48 VLS with little if any room for growth VLS wise won by default - that is 'why' RAN has 3 Hobart Class ships. How do I know this? I entered the APS as a Graduate Administrative Assistant in 2000. The Statutory Authority I was trained at has a close relationship with all Commonwealth Department's and is responsible in holding them accountable and ensuring 'value for money' and best practice policies are followed. The Authority has different 2 sections and small teams are responsible for different Department's of the APS. One of the TL's of my section, in which DoD came under it's purview and responsibility told us exactly what went on in those TS+ discussions. We were all vetted to TS+ so this information was able to be discussed with us as a team. So - there are as you pointed out so many discussions and factors that never are made available to the media in general, the defence media specifically, or the general public. In hindsight imo the Burke 2A was always the best choice, the multiple problems with this program especially in the beginning could have been avoided [for example the original schematics had not even been translated into English] - even though Hobart finally was delivered. But RAND were bought it - it was for a period of time a FUBAR. Having strictly 48 VLS today simply is not enough. Crewing numbers thanks to technology have also been able to be reduced.

To operate in the "Modern Naval Battle Space" is to successfully defend one's self from Supersonic Sea-skimming Anti-Ship Cruise Missiles (ASCM). The only winning formula is to be able to counter "45 seconds to impact" from detection to destruction of these most dangerous ASCMs. A non-rotating radar is required to maximize detection, tracking, and fire control time increasing your likelihood of survival. As for NOT having a main gun . . . firing a missile across the bow as a warning shot seems to be an expensive option.

i love the flight 3 design SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now adays companies seem to be reducing the amount of armament on the vessals they produce. I dont understand why they do that because how are you supposed to have the multi mission and stand alone capabilities with reduced armament??? this is a beautifully designed concept, i wish the US would take notes for their future projects, hats off to Australia!

Navantia and BAE obviously have the advantage here as builders of current or future RAN ships so TKMS and Gibbs & Cox are at a fundamental disadvantage especially as Gibbs and Cox are just a rehashed Constellation class and aren't a shipbuilder. So that leaves Navantia who I think will snatch up the tier 2 shipbuilding contract to replace the ANZAC class frigates while Australia may get a batch 2 of the BAE Hunter class frigates as their tier 1 combatants.

two fighting island vs. single command tower. Interesting ideas.

who makes all the models? does each company have a model making division?

It looks like everyone agees upon an efficient hull and power system that can bolt on weapons systems that are locally produced. That sort of cookie cutter concept might be creating a broad spectrum vulnerability? Clipper bow, wave penetrator bow, and how many missile racks you can bolt on like anti-aircraft gun tubs on WW2 ships... This is interesting when everyone across the world starts rigging ships for engaging a much higher number of targets. I also noticed a bunch of small cannon mounted on some of the ships too to handle a possible boarding party/ speed boat threat?

The RAN needs 2 additional AOR HMS Supply as the fleet increases. War is about logistics and not only about the number of embarked vertical launchers.. Cheers.

I thought the delay was caused by upgrading the shipyard. And redesign for a better armament hunter class. The steel was supposed to come from the Australian steel company, not Chinese imports. I know Austral who's building some alloy boats for RAN and border patrol was delayed to get the aluminium from China. But not for the steel for the hunter class. It is supposed to be our own steel develop here in Australia. China is the most purchased steel for industrial use as it's cheaper. But Australia does manufacture steel here, too. You can tell the difference also. Australian made steel is more shiny smother and darker grey in colour than Chinese steel. I don't think RAN will accept Chinese made steel for its main warships. The durability alone isn't strong enough to be used for the ships plate armor. I've worked for a steel compan in Melbourne I have seen the difference between the two.

Proven designs is what every other country has, a NEW option that is AHEAD is needed, not more of the same! Maybe a completely new idea?

Cheaper then hunter class but I don't think will be good choice Australia better of building upgunned varent hunter class with 96 cell VLS for AWDs and build 16 Navanti corvettes for ASW. With smaller crew. To bring more surface combating for its crew size. I've looked at other options it won't give RAN enough firepower for offensive capability or defensive capability. And too few ships. Without adding large numbers of crew for that they have trouble getting. Look at the crew need for Anzac ASW class frigate 180 crew per ship. A total of 8 ships. Roughly the same for the 3 light F100 class AWDs. Around 60 crew for new Awafra class OPV that has no real armament other than added 25mm gun. So the crew for 8 Anzac class could easily man 8 upgunned hunter class for AWDs. Given RAN a total of 8 destroyers. The 3 curent crew for AWDs could easily man 6 corvettes the crew for OPV could easily man another 10 more corvettes with minimal crew left in requirements to train up to man all. For ASW. This option would give RAN a total 24 surface combating ships majority with its current crew numbers. A lot more ASW capability and offensive capability with good firpower options. Navanti corvettes have twice the firepower than our current Anzac class ships on equivalent size and weight. You don't need large ships for ASW. And 16 combatants would be a he'll of a lot better than 8 or 9. It will also give Australia 8 heavily armed AWDs instead of just 3. All other options leaves same size fleet. With limited stike capability of offensive roles. Corvettes can fill the role for both OPV and ASW. For a country island surrounded by ocean mile's away from allies. With a defence shortage. Medium size GDP. RAN can't choose to have too many different varent of ships for separate roles. It will be stupid to go for current size fleet leaving it undergunned they be stuck with the same box as before a navy with new ships but unfit for purpose to be able to defend.. At the moment RAN has only 11 surface combating ships the rest is OPV a few mine hunters and merchant navy vessels. And 6 conventional powerd submarines It make a big difference with 24 combating vessels. 5 at first eventually 8 nuclear powerd submarines. A few new mine hunter ships. And merchant navy vessels. Australia would had doubled the fleet size with minimal requirement for extra crew numbers and have 10 times the firepower of even a new vessel fleet of other varents giving smaller numbers of ships that will only offer a quter of firepower to defend

We should build the plan first 3 Hunter class frigates than replace our 8 ANZAC class frigates with 8 new teir 2 frigates so we have more warships defending Australia.

Eh- it might seem ridiculous to build 9 Anti Submarine Warfare frigates (hunter class) instead of more surface warfare ships- But keep in mind that in a major conflict, China/Russia/Iran won’t be sending surface ships to Australia, they will be busy fighting American ships. Our enemies are most likely to send Submarines to harass our trade. That’s why Australia is investing so heavily in Submarines, ASW frigates and Poseidon ASW aircraft…

I'm sceptical the Hunter has the weight margins for that much VLS up so high.

2000 men each for the carriers, multirole light carriers 800-1000 each, drone carriers probably 300-500, that's approximately 6200- 7000 men. 200-250 for the DDs and 150-200 for the frigates and between 100-150 per Sloop. That's 5600 7600. So Australia would rather be destoryed or conquered by China than provide between 11,800 and 14,600 men?

He......!!!!!!!!!!!! ha......!!!!!!!!!!

*DISCLAIMER - I TOOK THE OPPORTUNITY TO PUT DOWN SOME POINTS I FIND EXTREMELY RELEVANT - SO APOLOGIES FOR THE LENGTH OF MY POST* "2023 Indo Pacific" was perfectly timed - especially given the leaks of the naval 'review' that has been already given to Marles. BAE presenting what should have been their first offer design reeks of desperation and catch up. Why RAN refuses to entertain a piggy back off the USN 'Constellation Class' is typical Russell. Especially as we now know Russell originally had the Italian design as their preferred ASW design. Russell just NEVER learns. A MOTS/FMS option should always be the first option when it comes to defence kit - yes the ADF does and should consider/select non US kit - the South Korean bi lateral relationship came under enormous pressure when Gillard/Smith cancelled the K9 self tracked decision over a decade ago - and with the Federal seat of Corio being 'marginal', and the need to repair the bi lateral relationship - combined with what was superior platforms - finally the ADF has selected x2 excellent options for Army. The Navantia 'Tier 1' offer is also a superb ship - it more than meets and exceeds what many previous respected defence/naval and former RAN commanders/officers have advocated. This is a seriously well armed ship, it is what RAN 'should' already have. The Corvette options are impressive - if there's a serious upside to the Hobart Class, after an appalling start [originally Navantia provided the ship schematics in f**king Spanish] - yes they had not been translated into English, and that's just one example I doubt many Australians know about - but Hobart's are maxed out at 7,000 tonnes with no room for additional VLS aft. If government is not going to buy into the USN run - and it seems a fait accompli, the Navantia 'Tier 1' and/or up-armed Hunter imo is the best platform hands down. Both are platforms that provides serious offensive punch - and commonality with the F100 design a huge plus. The key build mechanisms, SME supply chain mechanisms used in Hobart are still in place, de-risking the build process. And given the Armada has provided excellent ships, even if they've had problems - their LHD and Tanker/Fuel platforms have been excellent, so there is a high degree of established bi lateral upside in a naval design + build. But it is extremely rare for the most useless, inefficient, dysfunctional, wasteful, and culturally broken DoD to ever admit they screwed up - let lone will dump Hunter. The twin decisions to finally flick the 'Tiger' and 'Taipan' was a massive decision for Russell. Although Marles, who is more obsessed with ensuring Defence renames what are "un-manned drones" - and rename them something 'gender neutral' did deliver on that FUBAR - he still has to actually deliver on fixing what has been nearly two decades of 'both' sides of politics continual epic decisions, the French 'Suffren Class' and Christopher Pyne, arguably 'the' most detested MP in Australian political history, who selected and allowed Defence to deliver what are pathetic Pyne selected duds. For the most dysfunctional, arrogant, secretive, unaccountable Department you need a STRONG non nonsense MinDef. Shamefully we've had a revolving door of MinDef's. The big problem with Marles is he is also Deputyy Prim e Minister - this is important as given Albanese spends so much toimne travelling OS, Marles has to act as PM. Russell knows this and has, will continue to take full advantage of this Albanese 'gift' to Australians, of whom only one third actually voted for him. The inaction of the Morrison Government must NOT ever be stated, it is a fact Morrison and Turnbull, Pyne in particuklr wasted as much time as Rudd Gillard did - MinDef Dutton accepting Russell's killing off the Reaper Drone program after Australian taxpayers had spent millions training ADF personnel in the US in training, years of training was an appalling lack of judgement from Dutton - and MANY Australians have no idea how invaluable Senate Estimates are to holding the executive to account. Estimates is one of the 3 key checks on any government - but if given longer my subjective opinion was Dutton would, could have been an effective MinDef. But tat's history - the Defence Budget is a mess - RAN still refuses to up arm our LHD's or make what are minor changes to enable STOVL F35B's to operate off them [even if RAN removed these features before the Spanish build] - the Japan Self Defence Force are turning some of the flat top LHD's into carriers, which Russell and government refuse point blank to do. Why? Yes, the fear of 'upsetting/sending the wrong message to China'. As PM Tony Abbott ordered Russell to assess what LHD STOLV F35 changes were needed and Russell did everything to try and make the proposal un workable - when the finally costings to make the changes came in at [then] roughly half a billion, a small amount and given DoD still cannot spend their Budgeted Appropriations - now that's context. Abbott was rolled by Turnbull before he could actually take on Russell over this issue -and Turnbull had 0 interest in following this up. The problem is with Budget time - as we GAA ANAO trainee auditors were hammered - 'if' a Department/Statutory Authority does 'not' spend ALL of what they're appropriated Budget time - the government argues "ok then you do not need to same or an increase in funding next Budget". That is the reality of Canberra. That's the main reason why so many Department's towards the end of the financial year splurge spending on items they don't really need but need to spend the un used Appropriations on 'something' so as to avoid receiving less money next Budget. Defence will never change - and words don't have enough space to discuss the Collins LOTE - we are facing a strategic/defence mess. Hopefully these 'new' design options presented at 'Indo Pacific' from BAE + Navantia will be selected, 'or' Government decides to buy into the USN 'Constellation' build - something I personally doubt will happen. We are stuck with Hunter - and if so just commit to a small buy of 'Build One' - and then commit to 'Build Two - Tier 1' designs. But Australian voters are imo sick of the inaction - voters rate the threat of China as a top tier electoral issue - and in both SA + WA Federal electoral drivers are fast approaching red. Retaining the skilled indigenous workforce is a massive challenge and strategic importance - we have built up an impressive skilled workforce and also crucially key aSME's and supply chain mechanisms are established. Time is fast running out for Marles. Extending the 'second' naval review into February 2023 has domestic political considerations written all over it. You NEVER ever trust Labor on immigration, the border, or defence !!! The ALP can never remove the stain and shame of the 'Valley of naval Death' - Marles and Albanese will lose the next election if they do not get moving. Like it or not - the Liberal Party has always been trusted more on matters defence. That is the realpolitik. What is sickening to me as an aside is the most hated MP in the history of the Commonwealth Christopher Pyne - is now deeply financially set up in the defence sector after delivering nothing but disastrous defence and naval decisions. Now 'that' is a disgrace.

Chinese type 055 !!!

pretty much all of these designs are boring to me, because none of them can withstand being hit...if the designers made the assumption that a warship must be able to withstand some kind of enormous battle damage, and still function...then, it is of great interest. at the very least, they should make the designs able to deflect an incoming missile's damage.

The number of cells of the F110 is not very large but it must be remembered that the VLS allows four ESSM missiles to be housed in each of the cells, so the final number of these can be considerable.

Tasman is actually pretty rad. HMS and VDS... 3600t is pretty nuts. The F-110 is garbage. Why is that so huge? There better be lots of space and excess energy generation for future capabilities, because the ones it has are crap.

Besides no one cares about France but France. France isn't even a superpower

So 11 tier 2 ships!! Medium ships! average sensors!......................where's the bloody armament! Most tier 2 ships have only 16 VLS, you got to be kidding me, these things will be up against the tier 1 Chinese fleet! Lets hope the winner can at least have 32 VLS. Richard Marles is setting us up for a loss against China! , 11 tier 2 ships and what he has done is reduced our tier 1 Hunters by 3 ships!!! and retiring 2 x ANZACs before their replacements are built!......this is disgusting, pathic and dangerous! The RAN will have up to the early 2030s just 3 x Hobarts and 6 x ANZACs as our main fleet ships!!!
