St. Laurent class destroyer and Restigouche class destroyer[edit]

Thanks for helping with the St Laurent and Restigouche destroyer pages. What is the source for your statement that the Restigouches were lengthened at IRE?

I know that [1] gives a length of 371 ft after IRE and 366 ft as built. But as built the ships were 366 ft on the waterline, and 371 ft overall, so the most likely explanation of the statement in that website is that whoever wrote it, saw different lengths quoted and misunderstood.

But if you have a good source for their being lengthened, what is it?--Toddy1 20:13, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

infobox[edit]

The infobox needs managing into a smaller size, the multiple configurations of weapons gives it bulk and makes for hard reading.GraemeLeggett (talk) 16:15, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Forward deck[edit]

The forward section of the deck is unusual. There's a breakwater set halfway forward from the bridge superstructure, and before that there is little that is similar to other warships. Is there any truth in what I heard a few years ago that ships of this class had this done to better enable some compartments to be deliberately flooded to put that part under water, presumably to facilitate a part of nuclear fallout control. 2602:304:AE27:A99:9984:91CA:7F9B:B966 (talk) 00:20, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
