I only posted this on here so I could use the bot link to get around the pay wall to read about it. But, the link hasn’t worked for me. Bit annoying.

If this is correct BaE will need another yard, the order book at Scotstoun is pretty well full building for the RN and the Norwegians. Lots of work going into British yards and extended supply chain all good news.

LOL. Does the UK not build its own ships in Spain or South Korea?

Danes want the T31 which is based on the AH140 which is based on their own *Iver Huitfeldt*-class. We’ve come full circle

You wait all these years for a warship order and then three come along all at once.

From article:
Potential 4 orders for the Type 31 Frigate for Sweden and 3 from Denmark
This seems like an extremely exciting revival for British shipbuilding

I wonder if part of it is to do with aligning the type of equipment used by members of the JEF

Will they put barcodes on them so they can Scandinavian?

I think the overall design choices for these ships (T26 and T31) has been really smart. They’ve been designed to be flexible to allow different Navies to kit them out to suit specific preferences (see Canada and Australia). This modular approach makes them a good choice for export as other Navies can buy and modify the ships to suit easily enough while also knowing there’s a reliable supply chain behind them. It’s really good business for the area and highlights that Britain can still do some good engineering projects.
