I noticed that Heemskerck-class frigates have two 2D radars: LW-08 and DA-05/08. So this type of frigates don't need a dedicated height-finding radar or a 3D radar? How do they get the altitude of engaging targets?
The Royal Navy began the 1960s with two excellent classes of destroyer (County DLG).and frigate (Type 12 Leander) on order.
In 1966 the replacement of these ships with the T42 and T22 was set in hand.. In addition the T21 gp frigate was ordered to replace other frigate classes.
So not a lot of...
This thread was made for the Admiral Grigorovich class frigate since there isn't really one dedicated to it.
Now for the main reason I made this, Is there any credible images/specs of this frigate class? I'm specifically looking for pictures of the Admiral Essen, but any is fine.

Is there any more information about this ship around? I haven't been able to find to much.
I found a report and some artwork of the Team 1992 of the Naval Postgraduate School - Total Ship Systems Engineering on how an affordable future frigate for the US Navy might look like. They named the ship the Regional Deterence Ship (RDS).

The Brazilian "Niteroi" class frigates started life as the Vosper Thorneycroft
Mark 10 design in the late 1960s.
Many years ago I was looking at a Vosper brochure and it contained a small
artwork of a version of this ship armed with Seadart instead of the forward
4.5" gun. I have never been able...
This drawing appear to depict a BAE Systems design similar to the Lekiu class class built for Malaysia. Oddly, Jane's Defence Weekly mislabeled the same illustration as the DML F65, which obviously was a much larger concept, with a greatly different appearance.
From the following Hungarian...

What kind of project is it? Looks like a nice Type 23 follower.
The following webpage has quite a bit of information about alternate designs for the RN’s Type 19 CVA-01 escort frigate. The designs explore difference ASW configurations with ASROC, Ikara and Malafon.

back in the early 1980's an alternative frigate hull design was put forwrad by a commercial ship designer, and attracted some support from BAe and other navel ship builders. The MOD ordered trails between the S90 and Type 23 (duke Class) ASW firigate. The Marime Technology Board's findins...
