Ah ! I missed that, thanks. However, considering this is on a model, would it follow that the real ship would need similar paint scheme below the waterline where it would not be observable? :)

uhm... PB, there is no camo under the waterline. that wat looks like camo is the shading to show the shape of the hull, I suppose.

Right. But I can't see that it serves any useful purpose if its not camouflage; I mean, it doesn't indicate any particular hull features that require shading. Anyway, I'll leave it at that, as it will require changing if its to be uploaded. :)

I highly doubt the logistics ship could have a 76mm. Remember that the role of the logistics ship is to resupply the frigates and coastal corvettes, hopefully well outside the danger zone, so it would at most have a gun-based CIWS (40MM or thereabouts), 12.7mm machine guns, and probably a Mistral Simbad launcher, going by what the ship they're gonna replace (HNoMS VALKYRIEN (A535)) is armed with (2x 12.7MM, 1x Mistral Simbad).

The name of the real ship is tentatively KNM FRAM, she'll be based on the BERLIN-class, weigh 15,000 tons, with vital dimensions 155 meter long and 22 meter beam, and carry up to 5000 tons of fuel for the frigates and other vessels.

Is that an official Norwegian Navy concept drawing, or is it from the builder?

Because either way they need to fire their Photoshop artist.
