Pacific 2012 models

Post by MikeJames »

Hi all,

I was a guest of the organisers of the Pacific 2012 Maritime Defence exhibition and conference and took some shots of models on display.

There were more models of the AWD and Anzacs than you could poke a stick at, most built by DMG.

I have posted shots to my Photobucket account, as the forum unfortunately restricts images sizes too much for my taste.

You can see them here, http://s554.photobucket.com/albums/jj41 ... ic%202012/

Cheers

Mike

Hello Mike.
Great photo's. Does the AUSTAL COASTGUARD design use the same hull as the NAVY ARMIDALE class

Good afternoon Bruce,

The Cape Class are 57.8 metres long, whereas the Armidale's are 56.8, close enough that no one would really be able to tell the difference.
