==Design== | |||
The vessels' design was initially intended to incorporate a conventional icebreaking bow for cruising, and would have proceeded backwards for breaking heavy ice. The vessels' stern would have been designed for ice breaking and they would have employed ]s for propulsion and for chewing through resistant ice. However, due to cost constraints, a conventional bow-first design was chosen for both light and heavy icebreaking. The propulsion would be provided by diesel-electric twin shafts with bolt on propellers, similar to existing Canadian Coast Guard icebreakers. | |||
The vessels would have a hangar and flight deck capable of employing and maintaining the same maritime helicopters as Maritime Command's other vessels, the ] when it enters service, and the similar sized Canadian Forces ] ].<ref name="WarshipTechnologyAOPS"/> | |||
In 2008, a contract was awarded to BMT Fleet Technology and STX Canada Marine to assist in developing technical specifications and a design for the project. The technical specifications will be used to draft a Request for Proposals. It is likely that project implementation will begin when the contracts are expected to be awarded in August of 2010. | |||

Revision as of 18:45, 3 December 2011
This is not a Misplaced Pages article: It is an individual user's rough notes page, and may be incomplete and/or unreliable. |
On September 2 2010 User:Plasma East cut the then current contents of Arctic Patrol Ship, and pasted it over top of Arctic Patrol Ship Project -- previously a redirect.
This kind of cut and paste is counter-policy as it violates the rights of contributors prior to September 2nd, 2010.
Here is a diff of the two versions -- except for one small paragrpah they are almost identical.
I am going to as for an administrator to merge the revision history of Arctic Patrol Ship, prior to the cut and paste onto the revision history of Arctic Patrol Ship Project. Geo Swan (talk) 18:45, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
