Now it is going to take 20 years to lay down and commission 15 ships.

The 280 Class destroyers built between 1969 ad 1973 weighed in at 5,00 tons. (we'll ignore the 22,000 ton AORS also bullt around that time) so they are the biggest built since 1970.

They haven't even started a single ship yet and probably none of them will be constructed. The last batch of Harry DeWolf class,"patrol vessels" turned out to be lemons.

Your opinion is based on what? Are your con bot senses tingling or something? The global standard for naval lemons is the USN's LCS, a huge fleet that can basically never be used. Dare to compare.

@@wyldhowl2821I’ll give you that, the LCS is the poster child for bad design & execution. Not sure if you follow the Canadian national news but the HDW class has been plague with mechanical & electrical system failures, coating failures both above & below water, flooding, and just generally bad design. I still don’t understand how the shipyard managed to get a perfectly good operationally-proven design and managed to make it worst in every possible way at triple the cost. The same shipyard that has built the HDW is the same yard that will built the River Class vessels. And you should know that a few members of the LCS program management team have been involved with the CSC (now the River-Class) since at least 2015. So yeah, the lemon analogy might be warranted here.

So the River class are 8,000 tonnes,almost twice the size of the Halifax class they'll be replacing, and that 8000 tonnes about 80% the size of US Arleigh Burke class and almost the size of the Flight 1 & 2 Arleigh Burkes , the River class also with Aegis system, so are DDGs , guided missile destroyers . And Canada to build 15 of the River class ships , which is as many as the UK and Australia are to build combined of the Type 26 frigates

What a stupid comment. How are they obsolete when they havent been built yet? The radar used is so new that nobody else has them installed on warships yet. Any gun/missile/sonar/decoy can be changed to a different model as technology changes. You dont build a new frigate because there is a new torpedo you want. You simply buy the new torpedo.
