and frigates don't have that kind of capacity
they are build for speed
thus the uselessness
ASW does not require much power...
What shit are you on?
Need for speed ____/
if you can't power your new systems, what is the point?
>They can power them
VLS renders frigates pretty much useless
>it doesn't
destroyers can't even keep up with power requirements...
say nothing for frigates
what role does a frigate fill in a navy?
typical recon
just a somewhat heavier ship than a destroyer?
not heavier
no, the opposite
lightest
Lighter @Lucienne d'Anwyl
isnt recon what pt boats are for
lighter than a cruiser even
More of them, lighter armaments, speed @Lucienne d'Anwyl
sateillettes can spot a flea on a dogs back from space
so theyre missile bait
they're similar to destroyers in terms of role, being anti-submarine anti-air but they're smaller vessels
Wacka, they're all being unmasked tonight, aren't they?
why do u need a frigate to scout ahead with modern recon sats?
I say tend because the next gen frigate for the US Navy is going to be heavier than some types of destroyers
Creepy belgs
Be creepy af
Why are the Germanic so fucking inhuman
and the new active sonar for ASW is a power hungry.. so the utiliity is rather low compared to a destroyer with vls
mm
how good are satellites at night?
because we can only build so many destroyers and cruisers before the price gets out of hand
For tracking ships?
I think I just figured out Boris's game plan
Bad.
rather trade two frigates for a single destroyer
