Pl only tell me info from open sources. Do NOT tell me insider info.
I dunt want you are charged under OSA.
I mean the frigate sail at cruise speed, how long can the fuel and foods last?
water---i think desalination equipment can take care.
2. In the recent Gulf mission protecting oil refinery, LST can stay on sea for
18 days.
I give you "Secret" info.
Our LST don't need to refuel one. We already using matter-anti-matter reactors.
They don't even have humans on board. All systems run by A.I. So don't even need to eat. When under attack, can transform into Gundam.
Secret ah..OSA ah.. don't tell the whole world ah.
i beg to differ, our LST is nuclear ray burst powered, not matter anti matter reactors
our LST cannot transform yet, we are still developing the All Spark
You want real pictures of our Formidable frigates? I don't have them.
The Formidable-class frigates each have a Stargate in them allowing for instantaneous interplanetary travel.
Why do you think the teams in Stargate are known as 'SG' teams? SG-1, SG-2, SG-3.... 'SG' means more than just 'Stargate'.... it also stands for 'Singapore'!
Anyway, the interplanetary exploration has also allowed for alien technologies to be installed on the frigates, including energy shields and plasma beam weapons.
wants to know what kinda porn they watch at sea..

no need for porn lah............now got female sailors mah...............
Okay, you never heard this from me, but the world-class boffins at SingTech have made anti-matter redundant. Details are still sketchy, but it involves a rubber band, a paper clip and a 1980's-era SBS bus ticket.

Oh yeah..... they hired MacGyver to head their R&D back in the late 80s, right?

Here is a link to a top-secret, never-before-seen spy photo of a Formidable-class frigate, depicting her true capabilities:

u blind or what
thats Yamato Spaceship No 3
after the destruction of Yamato Battleship in WW2, the Japanese sea god Ryūjin raised her up from the seabed and convert her into trial space battleship
Typically a ship's fuel will last much shorter compared to 'food'.... the maximum range from the specs is 4,800 nm. Cruising speed of 18 knots... that will be about 11 days of endurance as a very rough gauge....
Another factor is that typically while on operational tempo, a warship might not sail at her most economical speed. Also a commander will never let her ship's fuel supply to drop so low... so in real life her range is probably most shorter than 11 days...

Not quite. LKY sued McGyver for some offhand comment that he made, and Mac was forced to provide services to make up for it.

That's just the Formidable's lifeboat, MG. The mothership's just too damn big for any one photo.

open sources - 50days, 9000nm range at economical speed of 12kt
But for operations usually max is 20+ days.

Tx for those meaningful input.
You're welcome. Just make sure you don't tell anyone about the rubber band.
i expected entertainment and this thread really define it. cheers.

brilliant explanation................bro..............
but you missed out the MOST DECISIVE factor regarding the NEED to refuel....................
how long the captain and crew can go without SEX..............!!!
a warship is only as powerful as her crew...............even a super battleship is not gonna be useful if her crew spends most of their time masturbating or raping each other...........
RSN Formidable sailed from France to SG as follows
some guys told me, very reliable n info vertified by other sources.
2005
21 May Lorient, France
6 June Dokar, Afracia
17 June Cape Town
26 June Reunion Island,
8 July CNB. Home sweet home!
I assume there is no resupply at sea.
So, the longest endurance is 13 days.
Can any navy guys correct me.
2. Are there 4 sets of engine or one set?
I calculate if one set, then fuel consumption is about 2 m3 per hour,
( 1900 liter a hour)
assume 10 days cruise
so 2 x 24 x 10=480 m3. assume the fuel tank is 2.5 m ht, like a HDB flat,
therfore, space of fuel tank is 480 /2.5=192 m2, or two units
of 4 rooms flat= 100 x 2= 200 m2.

location of Reunion Is
There are 2 engines, one for cruising, the other for lightspeed. Contrary to popular belief, such engines don't run on diesel.
