Talk:HMNZS Canterbury (L421)

message: This is pretty neat - Google maps now has a shot of Canterbury fitting out at Williamtown in Australia at: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=-37.862,144.889&ie=UTF8&t=h&om=1&ll=-37.861442,144.912313&spn=0.001961,0.003573&z=18&iwloc=addr The ship next to her is an Anzac class frigate. One of the Project Protector OPVs is also visible south of Canterbury. --Nick Dowling (talk) 01:36, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  RHIB? 

message: This discussion originated on my talk page after I reverted an IP claiming the ship had four .50 calibre machine guns --Epipelagic (talk) 11:04, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree it does look like four guns on the YouTube video. Still, that's not what the Navy says on their official web page for the ship (see bottom left), and you cannot cite the video as a reliable source. Can you find a report somewhere which says the ship upgunned? --Epipelagic (talk) 10:56, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  Here they are firing two 50 cals, at once showing that there are two 50 cal mounts on one side and there are two mounts on the opposite side... and if they have the mounts they carry the guns on board. It is such a small upgrade that the RNZN wouldn't even mention it and there will be no official notice of upgrade.

message: Under Aircraft carried it mentions "4 × NH90 helicopters can also be hangared for transport, however cannot yet be operated off of the ship at sea." This is so out of date, the NH90 were cleared to operate off Canterbury at sea in 2017. Whilst it is very rear they do. They are cleared to do this operation and have even been used in training the next batch of FDO's. Pretty sure they are cleared to sea state 2 or 3.

message: The crew size seems to be incorrectly listed. I'm not exactly sure how wikipedia editing works though so I would prefer a more qualified person did it for me. The actual crew size is 78 core crew members, with the 10 air force and 7 army ship staff personell being correct.
