    West German Bundesmarine Naval Projects

    Just bought the 1968/9 and 1969/70 Jane's Fighting Ships and found two interesting West German naval projects which were planned for the 1970s but were different from the final vessels. The first is for 16 missile equipped fast patrol boats. These would carry the Tartar missile system in...

    German Navalized ROLAND-II SAM system

    In the early to mid 1970's the German navy was experimenting with the navalization of both the Gepard SPAA gun system and the ROLAND-II surface to air missile system.

    Saunders Roe P.177 / SR.177

    I've cut and pasted this from another site SR.177 is a mixed powerplant interceptor and quite a flexible design to boot. Japan had a look at it too, and at one point examined weather to buy the SR.53's. and the production jigs. Had it entered service, its most likely the RAF and RN would...
