It all depends how you assemble the warship and the documents I have seen the height of the building will be changed. You seem to have something out for Irving I guess, probably be because they don't run all their decisions by you I wager.

Wow what a necro post. Well its not just about the hull length but also the superstructure and height of the mast. Coupled together with filling in up to 14 hectares of harbor which they need permission to do so. Keep in mind as well originally they thought they would be building one CSC at a...

Well we should as it a waste of time. Even another government won't go that way as the sticker shock and public backlash would be too late. More than likely another minority government with the NDP pulling the Liberal or Conservatives chain.

They already visited a number of counties including Japan and they have been looking for several years at options. KSS II is on the short list and very smart of them to get their foot in the door now, especially with the government leaning towards a deal with Korea.

Its not about affording it, the current government has been very clear that acquiring nuclear submarines is unacceptable and its doubtful the public will accept it.

"The Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC) project recently achieved another major design milestone. In April, 16 sailors from coast to coast arrived at the Human Performance Lab in Dahlgren, Virginia where they participated in the validation of a full-scale mock up of a selected Operations Room...

So it appears things are moving towards the selection of a design for the next class of submarines for the RCN which will succeed the Victoria Class. Later this month members of the submarine replacement project will travel to Japan and Korea to look at the Korean KSS-III and presumably the...

Put "one over" right......where's your substantiation of that eh? The simple fact is that the prime contractor expected to build a substantially smaller vessel in tonnage when they signed the combat package contract and the government years later bloated so the prime contractor has gone back to...

Pugliese is a well known opponent of the CSC and has consistently painted it in a bad light and well known with playing fast and lose with the "facts" just like Ken Hansen.

Its actually 100M for a syncrolift and changes to the internals of the existing structure. I love when David Pugliese quotes "industry sources" which is pretty much in every hit piece he writes, probably Davie shipbuilding.

Some for tidbits for the people not in the know. From someone that was just at CANSEC. Safran is providing the New Generation Dagaie System which launches decoys. They are providing one system per ship two launchers total, one port one starboard fitted above the flex deck space on the ASM deck...

Unacceptable or not that is the nature of the contract and how they could get these yards involved with the NSS in the first place. Pretty hard to do the upgrades when the building is occupied with the build and fabrication is going on:sneaky: and your puzzled by that fact?🙄🙄 Its seems...

Not sure if your getting it so I'll try and explain again. Irving was selected in 2012 as the shipyard for the NSS and contingent of that the shipyard had to make upgrades as specified in the NSS contract that included the combat package. Like you said the design wasn't selected until 2018. Up...

Pretty hard to include technical upgrades when the size of what they were actually building and they did not as of yet know what design as it wasn't even chosen yet. Like I already said it was only a few years ago that Irving discovered that they would have to upgrade. That was communicated to...

Well there is number if issues of what you just said. As part of the NSP or NSS these days Irving had to upgrade their yard IAW the contract for the scope of work for the combat package of the NSS. The upgrades which was specified for a certain size ship were completed years before the type 26...

Yes they are in talks with government right now. I knew about this two years ago that the assembly hall wasn't suitable for the build as the type and dimensions of the selection grew over what was envisioned originally for Irving to ne selected as a NSS yard. They are looking for a 100M upgrade...
