Frigates vs Destroyers. Why Does the Canadian Navy Have No Destroyer Ships, Only Frigates? It was a time when Canada's mighty destroyers reigned supreme over its waters. But times changed, and now sleek, versatile frigates patrol where these giants once dominated. What drove this transformation in the Canadian Navy? And why does the Canadian Navy have no destroyer ships, only frigates?
Ah, the Iroquois-class destroyers. Just their name conjures images of steel giants slicing through icy waves, Canadian flags snapping proudly in the wind. They were the apex predators of the north, the guardians of a vast coastline, and symbols of national pride.
Imagine four of these majestic ships, named after fearsome Mohawk warriors - Iroquois, Huron, Algonquin, and Athabascan. Each weighed over 4,000 tons (3628 tonne), bristled with guns and missiles, and carried helicopters like loyal hawks perched on their shoulders. They patrolled the frigid Atlantic, the treacherous Arctic, and even ventured far south, showing the maple leaf wherever the seas may lead. #destroyers #frigates #canadiannavy

The VLS and 5” gun were superior on the 280s.

Never mind whether warships are called destroyers or frigates, as long as they have anti-air, anti-submarine, and surface warfare capabilities. Of larger concern is why the RCN does not have the capability to provide sea lift for a Canadian battalion of troops and its equipment. Canada has numerous islands, two large islands have a significant population. Both islands can block access to both oceans major sea ports, ports whose commerce affects Canada's economy.

The RCN no matter what ships it has in commission is ineffective as a whole for one single reason, not enough sailors to man the fleet. You can have the newest most advanced ships yet can only put so many to sea if you can't recruit enough people to join up. It's been Canada's achilles heel for decades and only getting worse thanks to policies of the current government. Recruiting is no longer aimed at the 18yr old who seeks adventure and to go into harms way, it's the opposite and dismal recruiting figures reflect that fact.

Canadian destroyers were poorly equipped to fight a war like say an Arleigh Burke class one is. Few ships are. The ships originally took a few minutes to fire the first rounds of Sea Sparrows, then 10 minutes to reload/relaunch. I can go on and on but the modern type 26 will weigh almost twice what the Iroquois weighed. Many frigates now are in the 8K to 10K ton class. A destroyer is designed to fight a war by attacking multiple land, sea, and air targets. The Arleigh Burke carries 96 VLS cells. The Type 26 will only carry 30 or 32 VLS cells? The destroyer starts a war, a frigate fights in it. That is primarily Canada's philosophy. Be able to fight, but not to be the one starting a war. The Type 26 will also have to evolve thru time just as the Iroquois destroyers did. A better question is when will Canada be able to defend the arctic with submarines? Hasnt done that ever!

I understand that I was watching computer graphics, but they showed a frigate with waves extending, not only from the bow and stern, but also from amidships. That’s unlikely, nowadays. I know that commercial freighters and oil tankers have got rid of those waves 🌊 (for fuel efficiency reasons, I believe), and likely, military Ships would have got rid of them by now, as well. Anyone is free to correct me, if I’m wrong, of course. I was reading a book by a retired AP reporter, back in the 2000’s. He was boarded and robbed by pirates while sailing around the world, alone, in his sailboat ⛵️. So after he completed his trip, he wrote a book about modern-day piracy 🏴‍☠️, and mentioned how the elimination of that mid-ships wave made it easier for pirates to maneuver around the ships, nowadays. Can’t win for losing. Get rid of drag, and make it easier to be boarded.

During the cold war (when we had the 4 destroyers, and a bunch of destroyer escorts (roughly the size of a frigate), Canada's role within NATO was primarily anti-submarine warfare. That's why our ships had mortars, ASROC (anti-submarine rockets), and helicopters, with token guns for self defense. The nature of the threat has changed, so the CPFs and the next generation ships are different. That's the real reason for "only frigates and no destroyers."

The terms destroyer and frigate have become a game of nomanclature rather than siificant definition.

The most common class of destroyer in the world, the Burkes, are only slightly heavier. About the biggest difference and that is not always true is top speed with the destroyers being faster.

It is just a naming game, warships been shrinking since WW2 , with more compact weapon systems, big ships are no longer necessary. A few Harpoons are more destructive than several of the 18 inch guns on the Yamato, and smaller ships spread out the odds more that you will not lose a whole big ship in one shot. A light cruiser such as the German Emden would be classified as a destroyer today with vastly more fire power than a light cruiser. It is the old assault rifle argument, if it has a wooden stock and not black and plastic, it is not a military weapon !

Why is this video is talking about the Iroquois as being huge? 4,000 tons is surprisingly small. Nations that deploy both frigates and destroyers, like Australia, allow destroyers to be air warfare specialist, and frigates concentrate on anti-submarine warfare. Canada would benefit from this kind of thinking, but the only reason Canada lost destroyer power is because of low defense budgets and an unwillingness to build forces based on a solid long term plan. Too much dithering, and not enough commitment to serious defense spending.

We have Frigates because they are cheaper, and therefore politically easier to sell to the public. They are substantially less capable than destroyers. They have less range, less armour, less ability to detect other surface combatants, aircraft, and submarines. They have less life support, so the time they can spend at sea is a fraction of what a destroyer can do. Destroyers can go almost anywhere a frigate can go. Destroyers are faster, and better armed by a factor of 10. A destroyer can safely travel by itself anywhere in the world, and then lead a naval task force. A frigate cannot safely travel by itself, it must join a naval task force because it can’t sustain itself. We have frigates because politicians are afraid to make hard decisions.

Not the case with the new ships the RCN's getting, which are T26 variants. They're actually bigger than what most European counties call destroyers, anyway, and not that much smaller than our existing RN T45s. While the armament the RCN's specified is pretty good too, including deck box launch for 8 x Naval Strike Missile and VLS for 24 x Sea Ceptor as well as onboard launch tubes for ASW torpedoes as well as Helicopter mounted ASW. Plus 24 x T41 VLS fit. So, considering too that the vessel is innately optimised for ASW in any case, including propulsion plant etc and will have both hull mounted and towed array sonar fits, you'll be getting the world's most deadly ASW combatant that can also carry significant mission tailored Anti Air/Missile, Anti Surface and/or Land Strike packages in addition to its standard armaments. Range is c7,000 nautical miles, too.

I think that you should educate yourself on reading if you can on the contributions and sacrifice Canada made during world war 1 and 2 with a population 10 times smaller after world war 2 having one of the largest navies in the world remember the war of 1812 you invaded Canada and lost. The only threat we face is probably from you Americans 1812 part 2 unless you have another civil war!!

@@tilaman3 not questioning their bravery. Lack of defense spending. Canada had been admonished by NATO for not pulling their weight on spending.

@@davestevens4193 NATO defense is national defense what a nation is spending in total I agree but what is missing In the cost of the cost of the 15 naval ships that have to be built the cost of the 88 fighters the possible purchase of 12 new submarines for starters once those costs are added in I believe we will meet the task but I do agree both our Liberal and Conservative federal governments have pushed to ball to the brink.

What a load of garbage. Modern frigates are better than old destroyers. They are often bigger than destroyers. Modern ships have a roll. They are advanced technological weapons, not armored battleships FFS!

Unfortunately the RCN isn't a balanced force. After WWII the British RN gave Canada two light cruisers and two light aircraft carriers, most were laid up by the RCN as quickly as possible. The RCN then, and still is today, an escort navy with nearly no sea power. The RCN has no sea lift ships to support their army to defend any of the islands off their mainland coasts....
