FFG-59 Naval Frigate

I spent a few years in the US Navy and after FFG-46 was released, I wanted to make another vessel loosely based on an Arleigh Burke style destroyer but in compact form.


(click to see more!)

This ship has a ton of great systems bolted on and created by many talented builders who have shared their amazing work on the workshop. I'll list below and link where possible all the things you'll find from others in this vessel.

Start up: Left of the helm in the bridge you will see two key switches. Turn them both on to start the air intake pumps, exhaust pumps, fuel pumps, and radiators for the engines. Watch the ECU screen to see when the engine is up and running. You can use the throttle to the left of the helm to propel the boat. There is a reverser switch under the engine start switches to back down if needed.

Armament:
This ship comes with an 18-cell VLS pack aft of the stack, a bow mounted 5 inch MK45 naval gun, 4 .50 cal machine guns installed on the bow and amidships, and 4 7.62mm machine guns on the bridge wings and upper waist for her armament. There is a security locker in the mast and an armory back aft for personal weapons. There is also a rifle stowed in the bridge if needed for immediate defense. The small boat also has a rifle and bow mounted 7.62mm machine gun for security picket duties or VBSS operations.

Sensors:
The ship is equipped with the ADS3 defense system which can automatically engage multiple targets in the air or on the surface. This system uses multiple radars to ensure accurate tracking and all targets are displayed on a large screen in CIC. A large surface search radar scope is also mounted in the bridge/CIC and displays targets up to 12km away. There is an RWR system that will automatically dispense chaff from 4 6-pack SRBOC style launchers. The chaff dispense can be set to manual if desired. FOX ECM is used to jam potential incoming missiles. There is a mast mounted camera system to identify contacts visually from CIC. For subsurface threats the ship has a Sonar Control space in CIC that has an active sonar console which can determine Lat/Long position data for submarine threats and a passive sonar display waterfall that shows broadband acoustic information from contacts to correlate with various sensors.

Aviation:
Equipped with a recovery assist style system using magnet connections. If the system is active on the ship there will be a green indicator lit on flight deck so that approaching pilots can see the deck status (green or red). The helo control shack attached at the starboard side of the flight deck houses the magnet controls, a weather display, and a radio. A TACAN station can be tuned up in CIC to aid helicopter navigation back to the ship. There is a helo support room under the flight deck which has pump controls to feed fuel to the helicopter after it has landed. There is also an electrical charger port under the flight deck to keep the helicopter energized using ship's electricity so that the magnets holding the helicopter to the ship don't fully drain its battery.

Engineering:
The ship has 8 fuel tanks and the ship can receive fuel from the UNREP stations on the port and starboard waist. The controls for fuel transfers are all housed in the ballast and fuel control room. There are 8 ballast tanks which can fill and drain by controls located in this space. There are also 3 bilges that can be controlled from this location as well.

There is an AC plant that pumps cold air into some spaces throughout the ship using a set of cryocoolers. There is also a water plant that takes sea water and makes potable water to send to the various sinks, showers, and toilets throughout the ship. The toilets drain into a sewage black water tank that will need to be overboard discharged when the tank is full. The sinks and shower drains will empty into a grey water tank with controls for discharge are located in the water plant room. The hot water tank feeds the showers throughout the ship. There are a few cold store and frozen store rooms also cooled by cryocoolers.


Damage Control:
Throughout the ship there are multiple fire hose stations that are fed firemain pumped up from fire main tanks. These tanks will need to be refilled if there is prolonged firefighting. At the VLS magazine entry doors there are VLS deluge controls that will initiate flooding of the VLS magazine in case of emergencies from battle damage or a hang fire where the missile does not leave the VLS cell. For dewatering after damage control, use doors to let the water flow down into the bilges (open black painted area at the bottom of the ship) and operate the bilge pump controls to overboard discharge the water. There are damage control repair lockers located throughout the ship and painted with a red colored door for easy identification. Aft of the engine room between the VLS cells is a passage way that holes nitrogen bottles which can act like HALON and be used to suffocate the fire in the engine room.

Misc spaces:
There is a CO's stateroom below and aft of the pilot house with a full bathroom. Another toilet is in a separate bathroom just aft of the stateroom for bridge/CIC to share with using. There is an officer berthing, chief berthing and a lower enlisted berthing down in the engineering deck. The chiefs and officers share a head with a toilet and shower while the enlisted berthing has two showers, two toilets, and two sinks. There is also a sink in the kitchen.
