The new french ship is FREMM not La Fayette http://www.naval-technology.com/projects/fremm/

Aradu is a 1980 warship with 2001 refit new combat suite. Valour frigate has 1996 combat suite and 38 year old scrap-yard gun.

Aradu and Valour frigate struggle with same generation of combat suites. France is far ahead.

Stop this fooooooolish suiiiiicide argument, you lost !

Henry120:

[b]
241.7 the Detexis system attempts to achieve system reliability by means of a combination of dual-redundant, dual-homed Fast Ethernet switches, duplicated Network Interface Cards ("NICs" and software-implemented data packet duplication and selection logic, but reliability is compromised by the following :

241.7.1 the use of duplicated NICs is undesirable since hardware is doubled and each NIC requires the processing resources of its host, which is limited;

241.7.2 data packet duplication and selection is a potentially dangerous redundancy mechanism in mission-critical systems, since it violates the atomic commitment principle, namely that data transactions should either complete successfully ("commit" or fail completely ("abort", with no partial state. This is violated by the transmission of duplicate data packets.

242. The Detexis system also failed to comply with the requirements of the NSR quoted above in the following respects :

242.1 in the Detexis system the combat suite as a whole is not "based on" an architecture using a databus. Only the CMS component of the combat suite utilises a databus. The CMS in turn connects to the rest of the combat suite by multiple point-to-point (or hard-wired) links; and

242.2 the databus in the Detexis system is thus not a "multirole" databus, since it provides functionality to the CMS only and cannot provide clock synchronisation nor timestamping services nor bulk data transfer services to the combat suite, those being inter alia the functionalities of the databus specified by the URS (Para. 7.1.1 thereof);


242.3 the combat suite architecture based on the Detexis system is essentially a point-to-point system and such a system cannot be described as "Mordern".[/b]

Augustus.

Do you wish to compare capabilities of the combat suite??

Age of upgrade is irrelevant - as we taught you when you bragged about "modern" radar on your F-7's (Which turned out to be ancient)

Henry120:


You are unbelievable naive!

agaugust:


You already lost, the argument, you think FREMM is a destroyer, but it's a frigate. You know nothing about naval warfare, mumu

Patchesagain:


Still posting the opinion of an anti-arms deal critic?

Answer my two questions and stop wasting our time with these meaningless copy + pasts

Patchesagain:


You are unbeleivably dense.

You are posting the testimony from an arms deal CRITIC

Obviously he will be critical

Fact is the combat suite is good enough for the French and Saudi Navies

Fact is that the requirements of the Valour class changed as the project developed.

Patchesagain:


French navy deems it to be a destroyer

Henry120:


And he says it's from an arms critic!!!


Armscor and CCII systems are now arms critics?".... LOL

In computer architecture, a bus (related to the Latin "omnibus", meaning "for all" is a communication system that transfers data between components inside a computer, or between computers. This expression covers all related hardware components (wire, optical fiber, etc.) and software, including communication protocols

The French manufacturer that built the ship says FREMM is a frigate you dumbazz domingo !

ALL your arguments about combat suite is hereby de..molished , you know nothing about sea warfare

All four Balsam class supply ships of Nigeria are operational, they came into service between 2005 and 2010.

SAS Drakensberg is Obsolete, project hotel is looking to replace it, but no money.

He is bragging about obsolete Frigates...... the Valour class are nothing but sailing rust buckets.


The Ships do not even meet the users basic requirements.

Patchesagain:


French deem it to be a Destroyer

agaugust:


Citation needed....like this one http://en.dcnsgroup.com/news/dcns-over-50-combat-system-trials-performed-on-the-fremm-normandie/

Fool of Gauteng, post citation to beat the French manufacturer specs I posted...post it now !
.

Patchesagain:


French frigates introduced when the valour class was chosen use the same combat suite

Patchesagain:


Why are you so desperate to derail the argument with irrelevant topics?

agaugust:


It's actually the other way round, French La Fayette frigate was in service 1996, the Valour frigate entered service in 2003, you actually copied their old combat suite which they have now replaced with a modern system, buy you cannot afford anything new
.

When did the french replace it?

Citation needed!

MikeCZAR:
The Valour class frigates will be upgraded. There's already a project in place.

Patchesagain:



How does the classing of a FREMM have anything to do with the argument?

agaugust:


You have not posted citation to prove FREMM is a destroyer.

2007, La Fayette was replaced in frontline role by FREMM
.

agaugust:


You have no money

MikeCZAR:


In your dream land: The SANDF is buying new heavy torpedoes, OPVs, Badgers IFVs, A-Darter SRAAMs, Ambulances, Skyshield air defence system etc with YUM?

Or funding development of BVRAAM with YUM?

And many technology demonstrators!

agaugust:


It means you don't know difference between frigate and destroyer, so ALL your talk about combat suite is garbage
.

agaugust:


Lies Lies Lies....all those projects are grounded or moving at snail speed

Conclusion: France installed the combat suite in their destroyer!

Your opinion and that of the arms deal critic can't be regarded over the decision of French, South African and Saudi Admirals.
