Surveillance Infra Red Surveillance Radar n 9 February HMNZS TE KAHA took a major step Air Defence Missile forward on her Frigate Systems Upgrade journey Owith Lockheed Martin Canada, departing Auckland for Esquimalt, Canada. Infra Red Surveillance She is destined for Phase 3 of the Upgrade, the installation of the equipment. Phase 1 encompassed the design, while Phase 2 involved the purchasing and building of the Torpedo Detection Navigation Radar equipment, now ready and waiting at the Seaspan shipyardand Decoy System in Esquimalt. This includes new radars, electronic detection equipment, self-defence missile system, missile and torpedo decoys and an upgrade to the hull-mounted sonar. TE KAHA Torpedo Detection Navigation Radar will be ready for tasking from May 2020. TE MANA will and Decoy System follow, with her completion scheduled for May 2021. Naval Laser The upgrade replaces combat system equipment that is now Warning System 20 years old and is difficult to maintain and keep effective against current and emerging threats. The work is similar to frigate upgrades for Canada and the UK, and to Australia’s Naval Laser Anzac-class frigates. Warning System LTCDR Thompson, who has since handed over the XO position to Lieutenant Commander Rob McCaw, says the ship sails with a reduced crew. “We’re not conducting the same level of operations as we would with a south-east Asia or Pacific deployment. Our focus is getting to Canada safely.” Once at Esquimalt, the main focus will be to de-store the ship, as much as possible. “We’ll secure a lot of items, but everything that can be removed, will be removed, even in areas that aren’t being upgraded. There’s going to be cabling through areas, a lot of welding.

    The Seven Seas Tattler Issue 1.6 - November 2017 Good Day all members of the Seven Seas Club. Here is your November edition - I trust that you will find items of interest (Ed - [email protected]) From the Chairman The Navy has been very quiet over the last while except for SAS SPIOENKOP and SAS MANTATISI sailing every now and then for some training. The Durban based OPVs (Strikecraft) have conducted patrols along the coastline, stopping over in Simon's Town for fuel and a bit of R&R. They have returned to their base in Durban. SAS AMATOLA is currently getting ready for Exercise OXIDE, which is a search and rescue exercise with the French based at Reunion. The exercise will be conducted in Durban. Talking of the French, their ship the FLOREAL sustained some damage in Durban from the storm recently and will remain in Durban for a while to effect repairs. We welcome new members and wish all those with upcoming birthdays a very special day and a great year ahead. Report from The Treasurer Financial results for September were, once again, most pleasing, with our sales target achieved and bottom line exceeded. Thanks for the great support! Our Club Manager has been particularly vigilant and has managed to keep costs down, especially controllable costs such as water, electricity and stationery / printing and we are indebted to him. The targets for October are a little more challenging, but we are confident that they will be achieved if the current support from members continues. The signs are already there.

  • Maritime Security
    Australia and New Zealand in the Asia Pacific. Maritime Security Maritime security is of vital importance to Australia and New Zealand, as both countries depend on maritime transport for their economic survival. Since the events of 11 September 2001 serious questions have been raised as to whether Australia and New Zealand are adequately prepared for the con- sequences of a major disruption of global shipping following a terrorist attack on a leading regional port such as Hong Kong or Singapore. Considerable efforts have been undertaken to improve responses to an array of maritime security threats, such as transnational crime, environmental pollution and piracy and armed robbery. This volume identifies the issues that particularly affect Australia and New Zealand’s maritime security, evaluating the issues from legal and political perspec- tives, and proposes methods for improving the maritime security of the two coun- tries. While the focus is primarily on Australia and New Zealand, the scope extends to regional considerations, addressing matters related to Pacific island states, South East Asia and the Antarctic and sub-Antarctic regions. The book also addresses strategic partnerships, examining the influence of the United States, and analyses issues within the broad framework of international law and politics. Maritime Security: International Law and Policy Perspectives from Australia and New Zealand will be of great interest to scholars of international law, international relations and maritime affairs, maritime industry professionals, private and government lawyers, as well as diplomats, consuls and government officials. Natalie Klein is an Associate Professor at Macquarie Law School, Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. Joanna Mossop is a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Law at Victoria University of Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand.

  • The Royal New Zealand Navy, 1910-2010 Michael Wynd
    Small Steps from Empire to Independence: The Royal New Zealand Navy, 1910-2010 Michael Wynd Cet article explique le lien intime entre la Marine royale britannique et la la Marine royale néozélandaise dans l’histoire nationale et militaire de la Nouvelle-Zélande, une relation qui a commencé tôt dans l’histoire de la colonie avec l’inclusion de la Nouvelle-Zélande dans le cadre de l’Empire britannique. Jusqu’à dans le courant du vingtième siècle, la Nouvelle-Zélande a maintenu des liens étroits avec la Marine britannique et a embrassé avec enthousiasme son rôle de soutien de l’empire, comme peuvent en témoigner les contributions nationales aux deux guerres mondiales. Pour commencer, l’auteur passera en revue les contributions et le développement d’une marine très distinctement néozélandaise. La dernière partie de l’article examine le développement d’après-guerre de la Marine néozélandaise et les principaux changements qu’elle a subis pour devenir la force qu’elle est en 2010. The history of the Royal New Zealand Navy is a progression of small steps from Empire to independence. The navy in New Zealand has followed a very different path when compared to the experience of Australia and Canada. This paper will explore the influence of such factors as the nation’s manpower and financial capacity to build a fleet, perception of New Zealand’s place within the Empire, a growing self-awareness post- 1945, domestic and party factional politics in the 1970s and 1980s, and finally a shift back to multilateralism and cooperation in the past two decades.

Corrosion protection specialists who are part of H/es/ Farmers Subsidiary High Nickol Alloys went to sea recently — almost. They got the job ot cleaning and respraying the decks and stacks of RAN survey vessel HMAS Moresby. This was the first time that METALIZATION P/L have been given the opportunity to perform this application to the Navy's specifications. It involved shot blasting to parent metal to remove all stains and corroded sections of the decks. The decks and stacks were then treated by metal spraying zinc and later sprayed with aluminium. All in all 3000 sq ft of deck was treated in this application for the prevention of corrosion against salt water attack on steel. The work was carried out at HMAS Stirling or Garden Island as we used to call it. As a follow up to the corrosion application they were further involved in the application of spraying monel on aluminium bronze propellor shafts to increase bearing area life. Metalization advised that they can deal with a steel corro- sion application with about any type of corrosion problems. All machining is portable and can be utilized as 'in situ' applica- tion. Metalization is also involved in the reclammation of most metals including s/steel. cast iron, aluminium and aluminium bronze.

  • Timing Is Everything
    Chapter 2 The ANZACS, Part 1—The Frigate that wasn’t a Frigate As long ago as 1954 the cost of replacement frigates had been an issue. Almost a quarter of a century later, the 1978 Defence Review made the observation that `the high costs of acquiring and maintaining modern naval ships and systems compounds the difficulty of reaching decisions which will adequately provide for New Zealand's future needs at sea'.1 Indeed `extensive enquiries to find a replacement for HMNZS Otago made it clear that the cost of a new frigate had gone beyond what New Zealand could afford'.2 This observation led to the serious consideration of converting the Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) to a coast guard service, but the Government rejected the notion on the basis that, although a coast guard could carry out resource protection tasks, it would mean the end of any strategic relationship with our ANZUS Treaty partners, and the RNZN would no longer be able to operate as a military force. The Chief of Naval Staff, Rear Admiral Neil D. Anderson, said that the New Zealand Government's commitment to maintaining a professional fighting navy was `a magnificent shot in the arm for everyone in the Navy'.3 The Government remained committed to a compact multi-purpose navy, and calculated that a core operational force of three ships would be the minimum necessary force. These ships were to be the Leander-class frigates HMNZS Waikato and HMNZS Canterbury (commissioned in 1966 and 1971 respectively), and the older Type 12 frigate HMNZS Otago.
