Halifax class frigates
The Royal Canadian Navy’s
(RCN’s) Halifax class frigates,
commissioned between 1992 and
1996, were originally designed
for anti-submarine warfare and
anti-surface warfare in the open
reaches of the deep ocean.
Under the HCM/FELEX project, the
ships are receiving both a combat
systems upgrade (including a new
command and control system,
new sensors and electronic
warfare systems and upgraded
communications) and a planned
mid-life overhaul to ensure that
they remain effective for the
remainder of their service lives.
