As for a USN small surface combatant, if of course depends on what you define as ''small''. I would definitely go for the LCS-2/Indepenence class ships, it amazes me no-one in this thread has mentioned it before. Why? Here's why: - Modern, future-proof overall design, - Light tonnage (for a frigate-...

Hehe, glad to be back guys. For a long time I've been completely consumed by the University, but since a while the navy has been tickling the back of my skull again, so that's why I've started to revisit the forums again. To bad to see that Alvama has left, although I completely agree with the actio...

Looks very good, but I doubt it would be a viable replacement for the Iroqouis Class. As the modern trend is to build ships at a lower price and equip them with various kinds of interchangeable weapon systems, especially with the future replacement of the ''City Clas'', I would think the Canadians w...

Indeed erik_t, it is more becoming a personal design. Does a moderator see the opportunity to split the topic into a never-built and personal design section? Many thanks in advance :D

Hmmm.. In my honest opinion I quite like the DMO design,, it has a really personal Dutch feeling to it.
Your version strongly reminds me of the current (and IMO boring) FREMM line.

But I was planning to do several versions anyway so I'll take your idea into consideration as well ;)

Well my schedule for the weekend was stirred up a bit, so I only got time to make it this far: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/76124343/Nieuwe%20schepen/M-frigate%20Replacement2.png As you can see I mainly focused on the main radars of the ship. As Colombamike pointed out by the time these ships...

Thank you for that massive contribution Colombamike! As soon as the weekend starts I will pick it up again. Philbob: No, the S-, and L-frigates are completely different designs. Those were designed in the late 1970's to replace the destroyers that were then in service, while the M-frigates were to b...

Hmm seems like a dangerous spot to recover any flying thing... A tiny wind gust and she will fly into the superstructure! But an awesome feature nonetheless, thanks for the info MCspoilt! ;)

@Colombamike: it's not at all inconceivable that this frigate will end up with "hand-me-down" guns. Considering the steeply escalating cost to, not only design, but procure and build a ship of this size, any sensible government, be it Socialist, Liberal, or Conservative, would, in all likelyhood, a...
