I agree with your last paragraph completely.
You might not give the improved LM CCS 330 CMS such a bad rap compared to the Saab Combat System. Even the U.S. has conceded that it could never match the Type 26 design as they go through their own process. So your figures are grossly inaccurate as of today even with inflation to 2018. David Dunlop. It exceeds all Canadian naval requirements, and will accommodate Canada-specific modular design sub-systems with open systems architecture. This report provides an updated cost estimate for the Canadian Surface Combatant program. We hope not because they tend to be counterproductive. Accommodations are included for 208 crew, with a core complement of 118 sailors.A major part of the ship design will be the new Lockheed-Martin state-of-the-art LM CCM 330 Combat System (CS), that will meet all of Canada’s Naval C4ISR requirements. “The Type 26 Global Combat Ship is a flexible, next generation warship design that offers a low risk and affordable solution for the Canadian Surface Combatant program. The CCS 330 CS is miles ahead of the older CCS 330 system. !Now that Australia has decided to acquire the BAE Type 26 frigate to replace its Anzac-class frigates, does this give Canada more incentive to decide on the Type 26 ASW frigate for the RCN? These same features will minimize ownership costs and facilitate Canadian industry playing a major role in through-life support and upgrades, delivering long-term economic benefits to Canada. In their view, these two capabilities were not only desirable but necessary for the effectiveness of the RCN in the long term. They would never, however, build any other design but their own. This unproven design that is years away from proving itself should never have been allowed in the competition. Cheers!I like your enthusiasm, but I think you’ve hugely oversimplified you haven’t backed up your arguments with facts.
Not all of the ships would have to have this option. I would suggest that it needs streamlining and only have one ministry involved. Stating that the Type 26 exceeds Canada’s high-level requirements and would be more than capable of replacing our anti-air, anti-surface and anti-submarine capabilities is nothing but marketing propaganda! Possibly as low as $10B CAD lower. Yes, I have been a strong supporter of the BAE Type 26 over the other two designs, even years before BAE/Lockheed Martin had entered the bidding process.
My thoughts anyway. It is also interesting that the Aussi Type 26 is going to have the Saab combat system, IPMS etc which is generally considered superior to the patchwork quilt that is CCS 330.Mark: Have you personally seen the ‘updated’ CCS 330 Combat System in action that has just been put on the improved Halifax-class?
Hence let the RN get the Type 26 into the water and all the bugs and gremlins sorted out before leaping aboard procuring it. Such loads might include aid/rescue packages, underwater vehicles, boats or naval drones.The Type 26 frigate is 149.9 metres (492 ft) in length and has a maximum beam of 20.8 metres (69 ft) and a displacement of 7,000+ tons. The other program to watch is the USN Future FFG and what they decide, because if you only have a limited amount of funding, it would be wise to de-risk the project as much as you can. That is what the Kiwis have done after a few very expensive and unsuitable acquisitions. The Type 26 Frigate already offers a hull mounted sonar, a VDS as well as a Towed Array System(TAS). The BAE Type 26 seems to fit that bill to a tee. I am just a lowly ex-sailor who is passionate about the best ship fit for our future naval fleet! The ‘staggering’ of Type 26 building process by Britain, then Australia may have a more negative effect on our own procurement even if the ASW Type 26 is still the best option. It will accommodate Canadian hull-mounted and towed array sonar systems that are vital to long-range submarine detection. The ships will replace the Halifax-class frigates and the retired Iroquois-class destroyers.
