SWE Takes Action For Surface Warriors
Mine Countermeasure Ship Sailors will soon see a fix to correct the design flaw on the diesel engine exhaust flanges which have caused smoldering fires on their wood-hulled ships, Guided Missile Frigate Sailors will soon see the results of a study to investigate options for repairing or upgrading aging FFG engineering plant control systems, and Patrol Coastal (PC) Sailors will see work begin on more effectively maintaining their corrosion prone forward gun mounts.
