Everyone's on a learning curve. The Daring is fairly stealthy.

Interesting. So either little sonar or towed array. Nice to see everything
is headed toward electronically scanned arrays for radar etc.

& wrt anti-mine one wonders if it's a grp/plastic ship.

Not entirely sure though how any ship is going to provide "dominance
in coastal water battle-space" though where the threat will be small
& cheap & deployed from any truck.

Still it's a start towards trying to keep some surface sailors alive.
