HMA Ships Arunta (foreground), Stuart (middle) and Hobart unite off the east coast of Australia on their way to Bass Strait and the start of Fleet Certification Period 2020 (FCP20).
Note Arunta's lack of SPS-49 and a larger "golf ball" compared to Stuart. She finished her AMCAP (ANZAC mid-life capability upgrade) last year, which among other things included a new L-band phased array, CEAFAR2-L.

The RAN is replacing the ANZAC's with Type 42's correct? If so I wonder if the RNZN/NZ Govt will follow suite with our ANZAC's or go with the smaller general purpose Type 31's.
