Many years ago, before my grey hair, I speculated that an ideal 60s/70s fleet for Australia, without a carrier, would have been three to five DLGs or CGHs with six to ten DDGs, supported by light frigates or corvettes, supplemented by patrol boats.So County/Leahy/Belknap or RN Escort Cruiser/Italian style CGH, a mix of Battle/Daring DDG conversions and Adams class.
