RiceProducers:Since you are here, I will expect that you be respectful to differing opinions, please do not bring the unruly behavior that is well versed in the other thread to this place. Moving on, my thoughts on NNS Aradu, the ship is 43 years old and has passed it's effective life cycle. It's systems are old, it's engine is broken, it's weapon management system is outdated. NNS Aradu has had many accidents, the most recent repair was done at the Naval Dockyard in Lagos where there were problems with water ingress into the ship. The ship completed repairs and had to be towed out of the dockyard by Tugs back to NNS Beecroft. NNS Aradu while a powerful warship back when it was launched in the 80's is a complete shadow of it's self. The cost of refitting NNS Aradu back to a warm fighting frigate would be so high, it's systems, guns, radars, engines etc etc would need to be completed replaced. I am of the opinion that the Navy would be better served with acquiring 2 x brand new ships. There's so much emotional attachment with NNS Aradu, the ship is way past it's prime. If we are looking at purchasing Frigates the BRP Jose Rizal class Frigates would be an excellent fit for us, instead of investing in a ship that's way past it's prime. 1 Like |
