Album Info:
At the end of WW2 Undaunted was still a very young ship but she was obsolete against jets and fast submarines. She was converted to an anti-submarine frigate type 15 during 1952-54. Type 15 frigates were the RN's most modern ASW ships during the Cold War years from 1949 until 1956 when the new ASW frigates (types 12 and 14) entered service. Her superstructure was rebuilt for pursuit of submarines in heavy seas. Her ASW armament comprised new sonar, two enormous 3-barrel 12-inch Mark 10 mortars aft (Limbo), and tubes for long-range "Bidder" 21-inch homing torpedoes. Racks on the 4-inch gun mount were for rocket flares to illuminate a surfaced submarine. AA armament comprised new radar and director-aimed 4-inch and 40mm guns.
