Not sure what I can add to the comments except to say these are outstanding. You must have spent ages on research, and the good thing is that all of them look equally good.

Nice work on a series of USN ships that don't often get attention.

Thank you very much for the comments, guys!
And yes, it took quite an effort to collect and systematize all the pictures and documents; but since I'm very happy with the result I'd say it was worth it.

Here are two more Stalwart modifications. Three ships of this class were used in counter-drug operations known as "War on Drugs" between 1993 and 2002 under Joint Interagency Task Force - East. The SURTASS equipment was removed and long range radars were fitted: SPS-49 on Stalwart and Indomitable, SPS-40 on Capable.

WhyMe, I'm going to swap that out for the newer SPS-49 if you don't mind.

Edit: Like this:

And with those two drawings we now have 400 images in the US folder!
