Re: RN Frigates: Type 31 Inspiration Class
A guide to Britain’s new frigate types
By George Allison - May 25, 2022
The Royal Navy will soon have three new frigate classes, namely the Type 26, Type 31 and Type 32 but how much do you really know about them? This brief guide should bring you up to speed on the basics.
We’re all familiar with the various frigate types being built for the Royal Navy but many of us, myself included, may not be fully ‘clued-up’ on specifics like the build schedule, unit cost etc. So, I wanted to find out.
To this end, I was given access to Shephard’s ‘Defence Insight’ service, a fantastic platform used by industry to evaluate the latest information, modelling and intelligence on almost every defence project in the world, from information on the concept down to build schedules. I’m not exaggerating, it really is that comprehensive.
