    They are flotation boxes for help in the launching. They will be cut off later.

    I see. Nicely painted 😉

    Ayalabotto: partially correct on the frigates but which one(s)? Hint: not all hulls in thi pic are light grey

    Frosty: got all hulls but missed some detail differences between them. Hint: check radar fits.

    Apologies for the small pic. However, you could save pic, open locally and enlarge with MS Office Picture Manager.

    What are those structures on the hull, near the bow, below the anchors?

    I liked that last one. Here’s another (easy) just to keep this thread going. What ships?

    All right, good work.
    ANZAC was HMNZS Te Mana, Armidale was HMAS Bathurst, Arleigh Burke was USS Pinkney (DDG 91 and thus Flight IIA though).
    All assembled far away from home at Changi naval base in May 2007 for local defence show.

    Flight IIA, Really? What threw me off of that was the triple TR there. Shouldn’t this be more amid ship rather than on top of the hanger on a IIA? See pics below

    Do they have open press in America? Seems like most of the horse sh– is affiliated to some politcal party. Open press my rear end. :rolleyes:

    As long as you get different horse **** from all sides, you can triangulate.

    Of the 3 remaining pics I’d say one shows one of the four Pacific class PBs operated by Papua New Guinea, and then we also have a pic of one of the three Waspada FAC in service (still) with Brunei.

    That leaves 1, but no ideas for now.

    Congrats!

    Papua New Guinea Pacific class boat HMPNGS Dreger (P02) is correct (Doh!) < I was thinking some MCMV

    KDB Waspada P02 (double darn Doh!!) < I was thinking old ex-Uk ship like Leander/Rothesay …

    Having rejected Osprey MCMV I’m going to ventue a guess that the last one is either an auxiliary or a multirole patrol vessel.

    Thanks Scoot but that’s getting a little off topic isn’t it 😉

    Ok people lets get those three last vessels, it’s easier than you think (surprised that Wan hasn’t get them yet- he’s usually right on them).

    Hooters rules ok!

    You know, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen al three before and I’m going to go – “Doh!” when you finally reveal them. Just can’t place ’em! Arrghh!!
