It may interest you people to know that the North Korean avy has the most amount of mini subs in the world, some hold only four people and are an expansion on the WWII British X craft design.

It is of interest mate and thanks for posting it, I did some of my training on the old A boat “Buccaneer” (ACPB 100), She was for so long tied up along side at HMAS Cerberus as a rusting hulk used only for SAS (Survival at sea) training.

As a matter of interest, we were also shown many episodes of the ABC series “Patrol Boat” which featured predominantly around the life aboard the A boats.

Are you an ex-pusser mate?
Sounds like you and I could spin a few warries over the rations 😉

I was on Geraldton and Gawler a couple of times for various reasons myself

I think the main point is all these cases is that no matter how you arm a ship there is always going to be another ship built after it that will be better armed.

The best thing that can be hoped for is for a ship to fullfil it’s governemnets requirements as close to 100% as possible for as cheap as possible. To this end, the Royal New Zealand Navy has done really well with it’s Project Protector choices, these ships will fullfil a stagering 96% of the mission requirements for the limited budget (NZ$500M) that was set asside for it.

I see the F-124, the Type 45 and the Horizon all in the same category in terms of operational capabilities so the real question must come in the form of which of these ships is better suited to the needs of the country that has the requirement!

Correct me if I am wrong but didn’t the Brazilians buy the two carriers for US$12M and one was Stripped of all decent equipment in order to keep the other afloat for at least 20 years?

Wasn’t the Moray supposed to have been ordered for the RoCN? I remember the American’s wanted us to build some Collins class for the RoCN but with the troubles we’ve had that got canned.
