Cube's all good and well. But, I'd like to know more about those 3 ships shown at the 6 minute mark. They look like an Ulstein design with that x bow looking shape.
Optimising parts that should not be there in the first place... How often would you actually change the modules in a wartime situation? You wouldn't as you would be having hard enough time to just stay alive.. Just the same as the Boxer program just over engineered to be 'module'.. it would be better to build three or four ships instead of two module once. Quantity has its own quality.
Where will the crews for those extra ships come from? For better and worse these modular solutions exist because navies are expecting to have less people to go around (since conscription is no longer as popular, and volunteer forces need higher pay and benefits to compete with other employment sectors), so better to have modules that can be swapped in base/port than have hulls that will in all probability be stuck in port with nobody to man them.
Hopefully this works better than LCS' failed modularity...
I think the problem with the LCS were the eye-wateringly high cost overruns...? 🤔
LCS should have licensed Stanflex from the Danes and then moved to add modules later.
Sorry, @@paulbestwick2426; STANFLEX?
@@NobleKorhedron the modular system implemented for the Danish Navy. There is a good e plantation of it on Wikipedia.
The Danes having used stanflex successfully make me believe that Cube will also be successful.
Very interesting concept especially fact that size of warship to weight of different cubes. Strike frigate looks like strip down T26.
Nah not T26
They didn’t mention it but that is the design for the type 32 frigate
Is this related to S Cube?

Please check this out. We covered this future OPV (for the Danish Navy) last year: ruclips.net/video/uVyWmhJJk-k/видео.html

compact
This sounds too much like the LCS, but it’s renamed “Strike Frigate”!
Except the ship design and function is still very standard, it just has space assigned to experimental systems

Type 32 looks cheap,with a few iso container's on it, whoops cube's lol
What a load of old bolloxs 🤣
Lol
