Damn, I had ruled that out since I could'nt find any pictures showing the stern...

Hehe yeah I know the feeling I went by the life raft stowage next to the helo from some pics I found

Ok let's try our first submarine identification test. Again you're an observer aboard an ASW patrol aircarft and have come across this submarine running on the surface.

CLUE: Nil

REQUIRED: 1.>Submarine Class name, 2.>country of origin (construction) and 3.>operating country.

BONUS: I'll award a point for each of the 3 "required" above if anyone answers all three correctly, I'll award a bonus point for a total of 4pts for this Round.

INELIGIBLE: Sirius - (can PM answer for a 2 point award)

Not that I am complaining but was it not only for one round that I should be ineligible? I think you meant Sirius[;)]

Looks like an Echo-class SSGN. That would mean USSR as constructor & operating country.

A nice stingray torp would rip it apart [:)]

Yeah sorry Dagooz my mistake mate you're in the comp, Sirius has to take a break for a round.

Ok Sirius is obviously correct in stating a Stingray would take a chunck out of it. Although if it did maybe there'd be an "international incident"...

Anyway here's clue #2:

Sorry Sunburn no dice mate, you have 2 attempts left.

Darren

Daphne class built in france. Don't know operator.

You have two points so far Dagooz. I'll post another piece although I doubt it'll help your cause much.

Its Ghazi, S-134 operated by the Pakistan Navy [:)]

Dang, you guys are good! I am in awe![&o]

Yes aren't they Kip. I'll split the points on this one 2 points for both Dagooz and Flanker. I have a feeling Flanker knows more than he's letting on and had some free time on his hands... [8D]

Sorry about the interval, I'll try to update as often as I have the time. Here's the full photo and I'll see about getting another on the way before I get sucked back to some real life responsibilities.

Ok lets move on to Round 15. It's good to see some healthy competition after Sunburn took an early lead. Here's an opportunity to close the gap for some of you.

With the end of the Cold War many NATO member countries disposed of vessels that were considered excess to requirements or beyond post Cold War economic operating budgets. This vessel is a former NATO member frigate now operating with another navy.

CLUE: Nil

REQUIRED: Class name, country of origin and country of operation in the photo.

BONUS: Nil - answer all three required for 3 points.

INELIGIBLE: Dagooz & Flankerk

Class Name - Leander Class
Country of Origin - United Kingdom
Country of Operation - Equador i think

Here I am trying to get out of the house and get to work and of course the guy I knew would be taking a ping at this immediately is lurking...

2 out of 3 mate. We're still looking for the country and I have 2 clues left to reveal. Here's clue #2 while off to work I go... (you'll have to wait a few hours if you have a guess at the country)

Hehe looking a the paint work on the top of the gun turret I would say Chile[8D]

ARggghhhhhhhhhhh [:)]

ok you win 3 points for Sirius... Here's the pic and now you'll have to wait for the next round.

Well done Sirius.

Well this has been a fun, since Darren seems to be indisposed I thought I'd keep things moving. Same rules apply.
