Arrowhead 140 is already a copy of the Danish Iver Huitfeldt Fregat class. This new design is ment as a replacement of the 4 Thetis Artic Fregat class but with more self protection and possibility to employ weapons that perhabs the Iver Huitfeldt class also have.
@@justincase6645 I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder but that abomination is literally one of the most hideous warships to be designed in the last 30 years.

More ships for the Danish navy!! Funny thing that they can't recruit enough crews for the already existing ships and funding for armament isnt done either!!
Agree - Danish defence is a joke followed by so much incompetence .... if this was an area that was comparable to a company, the board would have sacked the entire top management
@@ulrichkristensen4087 You are probably confusing 'norse' with 'norweigian', 'norse' is the name the the pan scandinavian peoples around the the 9th to the 13th centuries :)
@@ulrichkristensen4087 but Danes are Norse, just as the Norwegians are. Both part of the Norse tribes and branch of language. So it's like saying he's proud to be Scandinavian. The design is technically also Scandinavian. Or go one up and say he's proud to be European. This is a European design as Denmark is part of Europe. Can also go the other way and say it's a Aarhusiansk design, as the company HQ and design lab is located in Aarhus. So nothing wrong in him saying he's proud to be part of the same lineage as the designer aka Norse.
Oh look, Canada's arctic patrol ship is already outdated before we even finished building them B4 Irving even resolved the severe flooding problems, structural problems, the towing problem, the satellite comm's company losing their security clearance, problems with the refuelling system, the generator problems, and I can't even remember what else, who cares at this point. We should be a shipbuilding powerhouse on the global stage, meanwhile Swift kayaks and canoes has more credibility
Canada has clearly fallen behind in 30 years in terms of having ability to design & build warships of frigate-size and up (5,000 ton). The Halifax-class ships are good multi-role frigates, with Anti-surface, short-range Anti-Air, and ASW weapon fits; they also have good ranges. Now, Canada is building a modified Type-26 frigates from the RN; given the troubles occuring with the Royal Australian Navy's Type-26 affecting the timeline & program costs, I am very concerned that Canada would end up with the same fate. Irving, since it has become 'de facto' only warship yard in Canada, has regrettably failed to invest in R & D, naval architecture & building. Even a much smaller country like Denmark has the capability to design and build her own naval ships, including frigates & MSM.
This is what Canada’s AOPS should have been! “It’s easier to bring a boat in and put missile on it, and train a crew, than it is to build a whole new ship” Holy crap this man is a genius.
@@qtdcanada Unfortunately Denmark no longer has the shipyards to build ships this size. Odense was the last one and that closed after the Absalon and Ivar Huitfeld class frigates were assembled. They will be built in the Baltics or Asia ... but to be fair both OSK and OMT (both Danish ship design companies) are experts at managing these kind of projects, so I expect it to go well.
Denmark needs to replace 4 arktis Thetis class asap. 6 would be better and hopefully capable off meeting emergin threats with perhabs Mk41 VLS for 32 missiles and radar to utilize SM-6 and Tomahawk, abd not to forget VDS and torpedoes. Denmark has the fifth largest commercial fleet in the world and the 12 largest landmass when Greenland is included. Its navy should be scaled accordingly
Unfortunately the only commitment from Denmark is towards 2 new ships to replace the 4 we had. The Defence Minister has mentioned "more could be look at", but it would be beyond the current 10-year defence agreement in Parliament.
@@ulrichkristensen4087 See how high it is and the forward turret cant shoot low or at the side there's your angle of attack since this ship are going to operate where engagement ranges can be really short it is essential for most ships today cover atleast 280 degree arc around the ship and definitely not have blind spots on the bow side arc. Especially where sea drones that are sheep to build and easy to use is concerned. Most ships built today have a minimum engagement range of less then 50m. There is no chance this ship meet that requirement. It is a drafted concept i doubt the Danish Navy would accept any ship with such a weakness in their final chosen design.
@@tony18662 It is a concept, this ship will sail the coast of greenland it will have vls onboard and possible rolling airframe, they are not going to engage at 50m if anything comes that close then it is because of bad leadership
The RNZN Inshore Patrol Vessels (IPVs) are an even bigger joke. Typical penny pinching crap, like the old 37.5m class . They cannot mount a weapon forward of the wheelhouse because of the sea washing over the bow. The HMS Tamar was her in Wellington last week. I am certainly not a naval architect BUT her side aspect-as viewed from our worksite high up in Oriental Bay-looked one HELL of a lot more suitable for our seas than our IPVs.
Haha this is not meant to be a large surface combatant but rather just a patrol ship. These models are also not finished and the 9 cell VLS is probably just a placeholder for now.
No brainer for the identified but delayed/put off RNZN OPV need. That length should handle the antarctic swells, unlike the existing OPVs.
AUS and NZ should buy build arrowhead 140 Frigates. Cheap, low crew but pack a punch
Dam was going to suggest this as well 🙂

The US Navy / Coast Guard could use several of those...Alaska has a _long_ coastline.
Well lets place an order in cooperation for more ships then the price will be less for each vessel.
US. Will design their own and build it at a cost 3X what the Danish design would cost.
She is a beast!!!! , a beautiful beast !

Just gotta remeber to give them working targeting computers this time lol
That shit is on our politicians...😂
That’s a nice looking ship 🚢
That is objectively one of the ugliest naval vessels ever designed🤮
Nice, looks more like a yacht.
Hope it has a little ice breaker qualities as well.
It will have full ice breaker capacity
Elsewhere OSK has mentioned PC1 or PC2, so yeah it'll for all intent and purposes be strengthened for year-round multi-year ice conditions.
Right. So it’s ‘ice capable’ whatever that means.
What POLAR class is it? That’s what we need to know.
It's PC 5.
