That picture is HMS Edinburgh.

Post #54 is of a French ship, the frigate Latouche-Tréville (D646).

Yep, an excellent ad for the Armée de l'Air.

[BansheeOne]

Nope, German Type 124, same as post #52. APAR and SMART-L radars, open cutter bay is easy distinguishing feature from Dutch De Zeven Provinciën class.

 

 

ETA: Wrong again, it's actually a Danish Iver Huitfeldt class; different position of funnels to (fully enclosed) boat bay is giveaway.

Imagine doing that for years in a ship a third the size knowing that if the weather gets better, someone in another ship will try to kill you - or even in a ship much smaller than that made of wood powered by sails.

At Sevastopol: on the left is Ochakov, last of the Kara-class. One the right, Admiral Levchenko, Udaloy-class destroyer visiting from the Northern Fleet. (BSF does not operate Udaloys).

Looks like a US sub. Hope that was a SINKEX

It was. From the 60's. USS Devil Fish being sunk by another US sub.

A submariner's nightmare.

Seriously, the pic is from joint exercise between PLAN and Russian Pacific Fleet. More pics here.

A classic; 'Murderers Row':

Third Fleet aircraft carriers at anchor in Ulithi Atoll, 8 December 1944, during a break from operations in the Philippines area. The carriers are (from front to back): USS Wasp (CV-18), USS Yorktown (CV-10), USS Hornet (CV-12), USS Hancock (CV-19) and USS Ticonderoga (CV-14).

The dark gray Essex-class carrier on the left is Lexington (CV-16)

Not a warship, but incredibly surreal. The wreck of the schooner Sweepstakes in Ontario.

 

I couldn't imagine owning one of those places on the shoreline with that thing just sitting out there ...

I'd say Lady Lex has the better camo. All the times I have seen this photo, and I NEVER saw her!
