Battle of Next Generation Frigates: Constellation Class Frigate vs Type 26 Frigate

A frigate is a swift, compact naval vessel capable of executing multiple functions, such as reconnaissance, escort duties, and air defense. The United States' Constellation-class frigate and the United Kingdom's Type 26 frigate, commonly referred to as the City-class frigate, are among the most sophisticated warships set to commence service shortly. Both are engineered for multi-role operations, providing robust anti-submarine, anti-surface, and anti-air warfare capabilities, while being versatile for diverse mission requirements. Although they possess certain parallels in purpose, their designs embody distinct naval goals and operational philosophies. This is a comparative analysis of essential elements:

@@deadbeats7604 this was supposed to be a quick solution to fill a gap in Americas naval fleet.

The last type 31 will be commissioned before the first Constellation hits the water, thanks to America's dysfunctional shipbuilding industry.

@@GarWhittaker Black Sea fleet is still operating and launching missile strikes on Ukraine everyday, you’re being fed lies and are clearly gullible enough to soak it up.

[@instagator13]

Can the US actually get any of these built? The Navy is as broken as the US gov. Can't get anything done in a timely matter.

[@bradulovic82]

Well, since they are built on already proven FREMM platform I assume there shouldn't be any surprises or any (major) problems to build them on schedule. But with that said, you can always count on the goverment and bureaucracy to fuck up even the easiest of things.
