Q: How many dudes will it hold? Q2: Is it armed at all? Q3: Is it equipped with ECM/ECCM/EW/Decoys/PDS? A really fascinating ship.

HMAS Jervis Bay can carry 500 combat equipped troops plus an unspecified number of vehicles. Good luck getting info on current weapons/defensive fits...:-) Owen G > -----Original Message-----

No, BUT... in case of any threat, stationms exist for fitting self-defence weapons. Usually .50 cal mgs and numerous (12+) Laser-guided Anti-Aircraft Missiles (RBS-70) which are very effective in a naval environment, though you pay for it in maintenance. > Q3: Is it equipped with ECM/ECCM/EW/Decoys/PDS? Only when needed. Plans will exist for fitting an autonomous NULKA
