    I like this idea of keeping the RIBs under cover. Yes, it's designed for stealth, but it also means that maintenance can be carried out in the warm and dry, and not outside in the rain.

    The armament is pretty similar to the German K130 class corvettes.
    Those have one 76mm main gun, two 27mm machine cannons, two RIM-116 rocket launchers each with 21 missiles as CIWS and four RBS-15-MK3 surface-to-surface missiles against ships and land targets.
    Optionally they can also lay mines.

      Even us kiwis operate sh2 I class seasprites armed with penguin missles. And have a ice strenghthened hull for Antarctic waters and sea state 6.

    • @sparkknocker6222
      @sparkknocker6222 8 років тому +2

      Yes, I agree. Remove the anti-ship missiles and the rear ramp systems. Install a mini VLS with 4-6 Penguins and short range anti-sub rockets, expand the side RHIB to fit two 7 meter instead on one ( the second could be on a track system to slide it into launch position) on either beam. Keep the forward weapons arrangement. This will give this vessel a better multi mission capability and deploy a platoon of marines instead of two squads.

      How do they need to upgrade? RAM CIWS​ is considered the best current defences, though they plan to be replaced harpoons are perfectly effective anti-ship missiles; still in use widely across the USA.

      Jansel Kenneth Tolentino The USN doesn't have a 75mm gun, we do have OTO Melara 76mm 62 caliber guns for the USCG. However the turret aboard this, is far too small for such, and is more resembling the BAE/Bofors Mk.110 57mm gun.

    It also nice if they can add torpedos for anti submarine or the Saab company product I forgot the name I'm sorry which is shot like a gatling gun 4 units, 2 on each side that has a 32 rounds that is shot if a submarine is spotted. The mortar type has a magnetic tip that will stick to a submarine if it passes to it and explode. It can be reloaded manually with in 8 minutes. If does not a torpedo for anti submarine that Saab product is the best substitute since its way cheaper and can be easily reloaded. If they have it in this boat model then this is suitable for Philippine navy. Cheaper but complete package and very deadly.

    This is a sweat ship. The size seem to b as small & cheap as u can get & still land a helo(big advantage). The slide out hangar is very cool. It has ram air def & a 76mm big boy. These seem the perfect fit for there patrol, resuce, & port def. How it is to work on them may b a diff story. The 3 ribs design is brilliant. It it had some kind of domed radar & elev tower it would b perfect. These would sell, every 1 could use these unless they decided to go just a little bigger w/the Corvetts. If a war broke out & the scope of duties increased to sub, sonar( saab attack) & 150 mile range, I think it would need to b the large class. So u hve 2 way cost & # of boats against needing more Frigates then. It u hve a lot of coast like us & Australia I think they r great. But if u hve a lot of sea & ocean work & small navy the class is a compromise. This is as close as u can cut it & hve the helo & underway refueling. I like the class & think w/all the bells & whistles & weapons these can count more toward the Navy & less just patrol.

      Would feel better with a 5" lightweight mount up forward, but the 76mm is still better than that pos 56mm.

    • @paladin0654
      @paladin0654 8 років тому

      I think you're referring to the 57mm Bofors. The 76mm Oto Melara is a very capable system, weighs a lot less than the 5 in. and has less deck penetration.

      The 57mm, that's the one. On a ship that is the size of a WWII Fletcher class destroyer that had 5 5/38 single mounts on board. The lightweight 5/54 is the match for all 5 and weighs less than 1 of them. Would not be a problem on an LCS. Oh, and the new LCS will be changed to FF.

  • @garyyoung4074

    Looks good. Like the helo deck w/ribs under. Also....nice you went with the 76mm gun rather than the puney 6 pounder that seems to be on everything.....including 450' frigates!!!! Put the 5" on frigates, the 6 pounder on FAC's and develope a NEW 7" lightweight gun for the Burke size NATO ships. A gun where the shell actually weighs something, even if it's a ramjet or rocket assist shell with a reduced bursting charge w/60+ mile range!
