I assume that "BAE Systems yard at Scotstoun" refers to BAE Marine YSL? Alai 00:11, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Is there any real shipbuilding left in the N.E. of England? Or anywhere in England for that matter?

All current FF/DD's in the RN have e mail systems and some allow all members to browse the internet, so this is not the first ship to be so fitted. --

Hmm, ipod charging point = POWER SOCKET! The media interest over it is just ridiculous

[edit] Neutrality

The article seems to be biased towards the Daring/Royal Navy. For example, the claim that the ship is the most advanced anti-aircraft in the world is completely unsupported and does not cite any kind of source, the radar system is described as "world-beating", etc. The entire article is written more like a patriotic news article than an encyclopaedic article.

Trouble is, the only people qualified to speak on her capabilities are the Royal Navy and BAE, until she sees combat we cannot know how she'll stand up. As a British man, I feel safer at nights with her around though ;-) 77.99.233.169 17:30, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
