Se calhar ainda vamos apanhar com este abastecedor, como substituto do NRP Bérrio, e por vinte milhões...................e só com trinta anos https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMNZS_Endeavour_(A11) ReplacementThe RNZN has now selected a replacement for the Endeavour. The ship was due to be decommissioned in 2013, but was retained after an 18-month refit to make the ship meet standards for double-hulled tankers. In March 2015, a request for tender for a replacement vessel was released by the New Zealand Ministry of Defence. The new retirement date is predicted to be April 2018.Endeavour berthed at Devonport Naval Base in 2007Tender requirements for the replacement replenishment vessel included a propulsion system, built around two diesel engines to provide a range of 6,400 nautical miles (11,900 km; 7,400 mi) at 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph), armament equivalent to two Mini Typhoon mounts and a Phalanx CIWS, facilities to operate a helicopter, and a container deck capacity of at least 12 TEU shipping containers. In September 2015, Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering and Hyundai Heavy Industries were shortlisted for the final phase of the tender.On 18 July 2016 the Minister of Defence announced that Hyundai Heavy Industries will construct Endeavour's replacement, at a cost of NZ$493,000,000, with an estimated in service date of 2020.The new vessel will have enhanced capabilities in Antarctica, the ability to carry and refuel helicopters, as well as replenish with both fuel and fresh water. It will feature a LEADGE bow as part of the "Enviroship" design. Rolls-Royce is supplying the propulsion that includes a Combined Diesel Electric and Diesel (CODLAD) propulsion plant based on twin Bergen main engines. These will each drive, via reduction gears, a controllable pitch propeller. Electrical power will be from four MTU generator sets.Cumprimentos
