Royal Navy to-day (1962)

The Royal Navy consists of the following ships:

Aircraft Carriers. Britain has 4: HMS Ark Royal, Hermes, Victorious, and Centaur. They are designated as the modern capital ships. Three are normally operational throughout

rying Army men or Marine commandos. HMS Bulwark, where the Marines are divided into five groups, each known as commando, is serving east of Suez. Another ship, HMS Albion, is being converted to a commando carrier. Each will have the capability of transporting two commandos under wartime con­ ditions.

Cruisers. Five cruisers are in commission: HMS Belfast,

In 1960 the Royal Navy added 5 new frigates to its fleets. In

During the past year the British Government invited contract* bids for two more guided missile destroyers. They will have up-to-date missile systems, detecting devices anS antisubmarine weapons. The first of them is HMS Devonshire.

three submarine squadrons. In addition divisions are operating from Malta, Singapore, Sydney and Halifax.

Great Britain’s first nuclear submarine is HMS Dread­ nought. It is a hunter-killer submarine and is equipped with highly sensitive detection gear and homing torpedoes. A second nuclear submarine, ordered by the Government is named FIMS

Valiant.

Mi nesweepers . The operational minesweeping fleet is made up of 12 inshore and 26 coastal minesweepers. On trials and training are 12 more. These ships are based in the United Kingdom, Malta, Singapore. A. number of inshore minesheepers are operating at Hong-Kong.

Convertion of USN Ships

A number of existing ships in the USN will be converted. 24 ships, all Gearing-class destroyers, are scheduled for remo­ deling. Trey are now 16 or 17 years old. Their convertion will include complete overhaul, replacement of worn machinery com­ ponents, repairs tp hulls and additions to the latest equipment, including ASW gear, that can be effectively installed.

Norton Sound, a guided missile ship, will be converted for the test of the Navy’s latest weapons system. Convertion calls for installation of a Typhon weapons system before its installa­

be one of the simplest antisubmarine weapons which the Navy developed. It is carried on the deck of the launching vessel and fired by being tossed overboard. When it hits the water, the acoustic-homing device and propelling motor are activated and carry it to the target. The Mark 32 has been announced to be obsolete.

2.What is the newest armament of modern ships?

3.When and where was the first atomic-powered submarine

built?

4.On board what ship do you serve?

5.What weapons are there in our Navy?

will be armed with 16 Polaris missiles which can be fired while submerged. Navigation instruments will insure accurate posi­ tioning before the missiles are fired. In addition, they will be equipped With standard torpedoes for action against enemy subs or surface ships.

2.Eight nuclear-powered attack submarines will be the same as Thresher class subs, but they will have many improvements. They will be antisubmarine warfare ships designed to destroy other submarines, but they are also effective against surface ships. Their ASW capabilities will consist of long-range sonar and guided and rocket-assisted torpedoes.

3.One nuclear-powered guided missile frigate will be equip­ ped with longand medium-range Typhon surface-to-air, sur­ face-to-surface and surface-to-missile system. She will operate

offensively with carrier strike force, ASW and amphibious forces.

4. Five escort ships are specially designed for locating and destroying enemy subs. They are principally the same as the escort ships of the 1962 program. They will combine improved seakeeping ability with advanced antisubmarine warfare capa­ bilities, including long-range sonar, an antisubmarine laun­ cher, antisubmarine torpedoes, drone ASW helicopters and conventional 5-inch guns.

5. Three guided missile escort ships have the same hull, machinary plant and ASW armament as the escort ships. In addition to antisubmarine warfare capabilities, the new guided missile

escort ships will be equipped also with the Tartar missile sys­ tem for operations against enemy aircraft.

6. Two motor gunboats will operate offensively on patrol, blockade and carry out surveillance missions in coastal waters and areas. Their size, speed, endurance, sea-keeping qualities and fire power will enable them to perform many tasks in na­ val operations.

7. A submarine tender is planned. This will be the third new construction submarine tender which can provide full support for nuclear-powered submarines, including Polaris submarines. Two others were authorized in the 1960 and 1962 programs. This ship will be able to support submarines, servicing three subs at the same time.

US Shipbuilding Program

Ship construction planned for 1959 comprised 20 new ves­ sels. The new ships included in this program were:

Five guided missile destroyers (five similar vessels were authorized for construction under the 1958 program). These vessels have a standard displacement of 3.370 tons and are armed with the Terrier surface-to-air missiles.

Six guided missile frigates. They have a displacement of slightly less than 5.000 tons. Other ships of this class are armed with Terrier missile launchers, antisubmarine hedgehog laun­ chers, and four 21-inch torpedo tubes in addition to conventio­

assault unit.

Other new construction includes four nuclear-powered attack submarines, one amphibious transport dock, and one ammuni­ tion ship.

Three nuclear-powered, ballistic missile submarines have been added to the 1958 program. Planned to be finished in 1960, they will carry about 16 of the 30-foot long Polaris intermediate range ballistic missiles. Two cruisers will be converted to sur- face-to-air guided missile cruisers. Nine other cruisers currently are under convertion to Terrier and Talos missiles.
