Any work on ANZAC CLASS FRIGATES?
474099
The ANZAC Class is based on the German Meko 200 frigate design with eight ships being constructed in Australia as part of the overall plan to upgrade the Royal Australian Navy.\n\nANZACs are long-range escorts with roles including air defence, anti submarine warfare, surveillance, reconnaissance and interdiction. The ships are capable of countering simultaneous threats from the air, surface and sub-surface. Powered by a combined diesel or gas (CODOG) propulsion plant permits speeds in excess of 27 knots with an operational range of more than 6000 nautical miles.\n\nEach Anzac frigate is fitted with an advanced package of air surveillance radars, omni-directional hull mounted sonar and electronic support systems which interface with a state-of-the-art combat data system.\n\nThe ships' main armament comprises one five inch (127 mm) gun capable of firing 20 rounds per minute, ship launched torpedoes and a MK 41 vertical launch system for the Sea Sparrow point defence missile.\n\nKaman Seasprite helicopters will be embarked to enhance anti-surface and surveillance capabilities.\n\nTake a tour of Australia's latest major surface combat vessels - the ANZAC Class Frigates\n\nStatistics\nDisplacement 3600 tonnes \nLength 118 metres \nBeam 14.8 metres \nShips Company 164 \nPropulsion One General Electric LM 2500 Gas Turbine \ntwo MTU diesels driving two controllable pitch propellers. \nSpeed 27 knots \nWeapon Systems One 5 inch Mk 45 Mod 2 automatic rapid fire gun. \nSea Sparrow anti-air missile system. \nTwo Mk 32 triple-mounted anti-submarine torpedo tubes. \nSix 50 calibre machine guns. \nAircraft One SH-2G(A) Super Seasprite armed with 'Penguin' missiles

The Royal Navy had been using a converted cruiser, HMS Hermes, as a seaplane carrier, to conduct trials in 1913. On the outbreak of the First World War a number of cross channel ferries were converted as well. However, another ship was needed, and in 1914 a tramp steamer was requisitioned whilst under construction. This 7,000-ton vessel was turned into the first purpose-built aircraft carrying vessel, HMS Ark Royal in Blyth, Northumberland. She could carry five floatplanes and 2 normal aircraft. The latter would have to return to land after launch, but the seaplanes could take off over the bow and land in the water alongside the carrier, before being lifted back into the hold by crane.\n\nThe ship spent the war in the Eastern Mediterranean and took part in the Dardanelles campaign from February to May 1915.\n\nIn January 1918 two of her Sopwith ABC planes attempted to bomb SMS Goeben.\n\nAfter the war she operated in the Black Sea, transporting aircraft to Batumi to support White Russian forces fighting the Russian Civil War. She was also used in support of the land campaign in Somalia against the Mad Mullah.\n\nDuring 1920 she assisted the withdrawal of White Russian forces from Crimea. She then returned to Britain and was put into reserve at Rosyth for a refit.\n\nShe was recommissioned in September 1922 to take aircraft out to the Mediterranean during the Chanak crisis, before undergoing another refit at Malta in April 1923.\n\nIn December 1934 she was renamed HMS Pegasus to free her name for a new carrier that was then beginning construction.\n\nHMS Pegasus served in only minor roles during the Second World War, and was sold in December 1946. Work began to convert her into a merchant ship named Anita I, but this was halted and she was broken up for scrap in 1949.\n\nSee HMS Ark Royal for other ships of the same name.

There's quite a few differences between the three, man.  Too many to list here. Frigates are the smallest, carrying barely a crew of 300, next are destroyers which are the fastest of the three, the hardest working and has the more important mission (I served on two destroyers).  A destroyer's crew is anywhere from 330 -350 sailors.  The guided missile cruiser is the larger of the three, with a crew of over 350 sailors.  \nOf the three, the destroyer carries more weapons.  All three support submarines and have a flight deck for air assistance.  \nThe one thing that links the three together is in the event of a naval battle, they all protect the aircraft carrier.  \n\nI recommend reading Jane's Book of Fighting Ships.  You can find it at any bookstore.  That book lists in great detail everything that you could possibly want to know complete with great photographs.

The have a boeing part # but were more than likely manufactured by a sub contractor.  It would not be out of the relm for them to have been made by someone like federal cartrage or another ammunition manufacturer.  They were esently blank shotgun rounds whose purpose was to bring the internal perssure of the compressor section up to a point that would support combustion to turn the exhaust fan blades.

Sadly, it looks as though most Yahoo users do not know of the Australia and New Zealand Army Corps. I can only assume that those other countries might be former allies that fought along side the ANZAC troops in previous wars: the british, obviously; the french, maybe; possibly the USA?

When I started this project, I had no idea how big it would get. I figured that I would just use a few of my reference books on naval ships so that people on the Netnews group rec.arts.startrek.misc would ask fewer uninformed questions about naval history. I used to post it regularly to that newsgroup, until Joe Creighton offered to put it on his "Star Trek Archive" web site. (April 1995) The hit rate astonished me! People were really reading this stuff! Anyhow, people started e-mailing me with additional information, suggestions for improvements, etc. It got to be a bit overwhelming. Now I'm finding that it's not just Star Trek fans who are interested. I'm now finding links to this site on real naval history sites! I suppose I should point out to any legitimate naval historians out there that this was originally designed for fans of the various Star Trek television series, and so references to future history (23rd & 24th centuries) and an obscure incedent aboard CVN-65 in 1986 involving one Pavel Chekov are of course, fiction. I was also a bit sloppier about references than I should have been. When I started this, I was doing it for a (then) small community of Star Trek fans on the Internet, and I wasn't really planning on it being an academic work with footnotes and references. Some things got lost in the shuffle, and probably a few errors have crept in during transcription. Nevertheless, I've tried to at least list my sources, and thank those who have contributed.

I'm definitely waiting for 'Warp speed', the Transporter and the Phaser...yes, in time we'll have these things.\n\nOne example is our Stealth bomber which is similar to a cloaked Romulan Warship.

I've seen a lot of CG boats running up and down the Detroit River and most of them have guns mounted.  I'd think a quick ration of GMs to CG ships to GL CG ships would provide a decent precentage.
