It seems that Thailand has a navy only to comply with the dictum: A language is a dialect with an army and navy. Pawyilee (talk) 03:54, 13 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Armament Listing

edit

I Strongly question the entry of: 8 - Mk41 VLS SAM launcher What missile type does it support/have? This not visible in the picture. It is a weapon that can be hard to pick out in a picture. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wfoj2 (talkcontribs) 13:07, 20 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Indeed it seems that the Mk. 41 has never been installed. So much can be discerned from comparing line drawings and actual photos. The original 8-cell launher was supposed to be fitted into a housing in front of the bridge, clearly protruding from the upper deck, not unlike what the Australians did with their OHP-upgrade. See: http://www.bloggang.com/data/skyman/picture/1146489744.jpg and in comparison http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a309/AAGth1/Naresuan-Mk48.jpg . The VLS should be removed from the specifications.
