I was watching one on sky last week about the building of the Arleigh Burke Destroyer and
bemoaning the fact we never have a similar programme about our ships and lo and behold

Missed an awful lot about her exceeding the design parameters on trials though.

They did but, they are not going to tell every man and his dog in public exactly what it really is capable of now are they Bob?

Paul,
Was all over the press straight after trials completed, anyway still got equipment I recognise.
Bob

Yes, but, even that was shaved down Bob!

Interesting how they fired the missiles - they dont get fitted until next year - they are going to use
Daring for so many first of class trials that Defender will be fully operational before she is.
Still quite an interesting programme made for the general public - we probably have a more
technical view - especially the ex-matelots which I believe there are quite a few on "Mayhem"

The footage of Aster 30/15 missiles in the program were the firing trials from the trials barge HMS Longbow.

Agreed. the character development wasn't as good i thought.

I liked the HMS Daring show. I'm not much of a techno type and just like warships and boats in general. Kind of want to build one now... {-)
