Ship's Company; Preparing the First Type 31 Frigate Ship Company

Ship's Company; Preparing the First Type 31 Frigate Ship Company

Due to the nature of Warship construction, the difference between two ships of different generations can be felt more vividly than on other platforms, and so its crewing needs to adapt. The new Type 31 frigates are the next generation of warships intended to replace the Type 21s with improved and new capabilities delivered by the latest technologies. While larger, the increases in automation mean that the crew can be smaller and more efficient, so the ship company formation needs to reflect this. In this interview, Commander Christopher Cozens of the Royal Navy shares his experience as a Senior Naval officer of the first Type 31 to enter service, the HMS Venturer.
