#Type26frigate
Good to see them working through the night to get it ready!
Doesn't look like they're running three shifts at all - for a destroyer/frigate the build time has been exceptionally long even for Royal Navy standards.
Keeping in mind they are at WWII light cruiser tonnage@@shinybaldy
Night shift removes what the day shift installed ,,keep the work in Scottish yards 🤭🤭🤭
Taking forever. Really taking their time
Great video. World class frigate can’t wait for her to enter service
Beautiful ❤
Absolutely stunning ship! Love and respect from 🎌🗾
When will her fitting out be complete?
I see they have been doing dredging near the dry dock , I guess she maybe leaving soon? For sea trials .
Lets hope it doesn't flood. The drive shaft is aligned, There are no major fires. Enough crew with experience to operate it. The Captain behaves themselves. Its able to deploy now & then. That apart it is nice to see the Navy have something new to defend our Country.
Does it have a drone ?
The flooding on both carrier were minor (PoW less minor than QE), with the reported ingress being less than the meax rating for a narrow boat bilge pump IIRC.
There hasn't been a major fire in recent Royal Navy history that I can think of.
the royal navy surface fleet, currently, has a pretty decent deployability
I will give you the drive shaft issues and recruitment issues, although the drive shaft issues have only really affected the carriers, not other vessels, perhaps because of the increased size?
@kimjonglongdong3158 Kitchen fires are major fires as far as the tabloids are concerned. Otherwise, agreed. Even with the nascent carriers reliability issues as is granted to most new large surface vessels, they manage to maintain a rather high level of readiness all things considered - at least comparable if not better than the matured Nimitz.
The biggest problems lay in the aging RFA and the readiness of the Type 45s. Pair an engine and powerplant upgrade programme with an armament upgrade programme, and you've gotten quite a lot of ships in drydock and a stringent few available at sea. Typically only 2 at sea to support the active CSG and nothing else, though sometimes even only 1 apparently. 8 Type 45s should have been procured, not 6. If that meant delays in delivery of the QEs, that's fine - its taking a while to get their jets onboard anyway.
Why on gods green earth does the UK take forever to build ships.. crazy
It’s a pity the Scottish government couldn’t support the navy
Get ready world yet another UK destroyer unleashed
It’s a frigate
" Get ready world "
🫣😂
it keeps breaking down...lmao
How has a frigate that hasn't even been launched yet broken down?
Another piece of under equipped Bae systems junk.Meanwhile QE 2 carriers are proving to be not even capable of licking themselves
Neither are new general Ford class carriers be thankful we have got 1 never mind 2 all have problems for first few years
