O FIM DE UMA ERA - A ÚLTIMA FRAGATA OHP PRESTES A DEIXAR O SERVIÇO ACTIVO

http://foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com/end-of ... 1678669074

"By October 2015, the fleet will be devoid of frigates for the first time in more than 70 years, according to the Navy’s latest decommissioning plan. The last Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigate to be decommissioned is the Kauffman, scheduled for Sept. 21, 2015. After that, the battle force will be without a frigate class for the first time since 1943, according to fleet composition records kept by Naval History and Heritage Command. The Kauffman will be the last ship to be inactivated, scheduled to leave service Sept. 21, 2015. Most of the frigates are to be sold to foreign navies."

Será que não dava pra comprar umas dessas e retrofitá-las com um novo míssil antiaéreo ?
Com umas 8 dessas nossa marinha passaria a seca que já está chegando, porque acho que navio novo não sai tão cedo.
Já houve um tempo em que um ministro disse que só compraria coisas novas, e o tempo mostra que ficaremos é sem navios de qualquer idade em breve.
Naquele lugar na proa de onde os americanos retiraram o lançador de míssil Standard nas OHP, daria para colocar um outro tipo de míssil antiaéreo, tem já uma canhão de 76 mm, tubos de torpedos e leva até 2 Sea Hawk.
Seria um reforço meio perrengue, mas pra quem está a ver navios...
Eu preferia umas Tipe 23 da RN ou Tipo 123 da Alemanha, mas parece que não estão disponíveis.

Tanto a Austrália como a Turquia as modernizaram com um VLS na proa

O que já se tornou numa rotina, projectos muito mais caros do que seria de esperar e com problemas de fiabilidade.

O que já se tornou numa rotina, projectos muito mais caros do que seria de esperar e com problemas de fiabilidade.

Mas tudo bem! Eles tem U$ bilhões destinado a defesa e compreendem claramente a importância da existencia da US Navy na composição do Poder Nacional estadudinense.

Fincantieri to Build The Other Two Ships Plus One Option for the US Navy's LCS Program

FINCANTIERI in partnership with Lockheed Martin Corporation, announces that its subsidiary Marinette Marine Corporation (MMC) has signed a contract modification for one fully funded Littoral Combat Ship (LCS 21) along with advanced procurement funding for another ship (LCS 23) for the US Navy’s Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) program. Furthermore the contract modification also includes a priced option for one additional ship, LCS 25, to be funded in 2016. The total value of the award for Fincantieri is approximately USD 232 million.

The US Congress has approved total funding for LCS 21 and, for LCS 23, has approved funding for advanced procurement that allows the cost and schedule of the final block buy option to be maintained, with total funding for this latter vessel anticipated by 31 December 2015.
These ships are the last 2 units of the 10 Freedom class vessels within the LCS program, awarded in 2010 to MMC through Fincantieri’s partnership with the US-based defense contractor, Lockheed Martin Corporation.

The other 8 vessels are currently under construction at MMC’s shipyard. “Milwaukee” (LCS 5) was launched in 2013, and is planned to be delivered to the US Navy in the summer of 2015, and “Detroit” (LCS 7) was launched in 2014. “Little Rock” (LCS 9) and “Sioux City” (LCS 11) are under construction, with the LCS 9 launch planned for this summer. The keel of “Wichita” (LCS 13) was laid in February 2015, while “Billings” (LCS 15), “Indianapolis” (LCS 17) and the yet to be named LCS 19 are all three in the early stages of construction.

The LCS program is one of the US Navy’s main shipbuilding programs and relates to a new generation of mid-sized multirole vessels, designed for surveillance activities and coastal defense for deep water operations as well as capabilities for addressing asymmetrical threats such as mines, silent diesel submarines and fast surface ships.
