Talk:Anzac-class frigate

message: I think the cost should be mentioned.  I heard on Deutsche Welle radio that the deal to germany
was worth 1bio NZ$  PER SHIP  at the time the decision was made by Tizard. As the VERY SAME TIME on New Zealand radio they first told us 350mio NZD, then 450, then 650... and then we stopped counting. Most people were opposed, it was rammed down our thoats with no proper consultation. Why protect Australian economic imperialism? There is a Westpac Bank in most pacific islands, determining the local money supply / undermining sovereignty, leading to conflicts and murder as we have seen in Solomons, PNG and a few other places.    124.197.26.162 09:12, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

message: This section needs some NPOVing, particularly in regards to the attitudes of Australian defence officials.  As I understand it, the view that the New Zealand defence force should basically become a unit of the Australian one in the event of direct attack is based on geography; unless you're the United States and can sail a carrier battle group straight across the Pacific, the only way to attack New Zealand is through Australian and south Pacific waters, in which Australia is the dominant military power.  Hence, Australia is defending New Zealand anyway, so New Zealand should chip in and contribute with some military muscle of their own.  
Personally, I can see a reasonable argument that New Zealand is in one of the most benign strategic environments on Earth, so why waste their money on an unnecessary military, but I think the characterisation of the Australian defence view is a little unfair.  
In any case, unless this can be sourced a little better it should be severely pruned.  --Robert Merkel 11:45, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

message: Hi, I've added a reference to a RAN page which contains the same information -- my first attempt to add a reference, so go easy.  Let me know if it's not OK. Kierenj 09:23, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Citation attempt 

message: New Zealand's SH-2Gs and Australia's are oversimplified here. Australia is heavily rebuilding its SH-2Gs to a new standard, not merely using second-hand aircraft.
Also discussion of Green Party policy in the late 1980s is problematic. Opposition came from multiple parties especially Labour. Labour was opposed to the frigates full stop.
There are three phases:
1996/1997 defence review - decision to move to a 3-frigate fleet (possibly third to be a Perry-class ship from Aus)
1998 - decision to delay the third Anzac (Winston's revenge!)
2001 - decision not to get a third frigate but get the MRV etc.

thread_title:  Factual flaws 

message: The namesake was the Australia New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC), many sources say Anzac but many also say ANZAC, some with it both ways.
http://www.navy.gov.au/w/index.php/Anzac_Class uses it both ways
http://www.absoluteastronomy.com/topics/Anzac_class_frigate also uses it both ways
the name should then default to the namesake, the ANZAC.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by CnrFallon (talk • contribs) 14:42, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  New Zealand controversy 

message: The following clause appears at the end of this section, " which commenced on Te Mana on 1 May 2018 and Te Mana on 5 May 2019." Surely an error. The entry for HMNZS Te Kaha states that she went for refit during May 2018. The entry for HMNZS Te Mana doesn't mention refit. I'm going to change the first Te Mana to Te Kaha and call it a spelling error. OrewaTel (talk) 09:34, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
