British Amazon Class 21 frigate
It is a type of frigate in the British Royal Navy in the 1970 s and 1990 s, designed to replace the old Leopard and Salisbury class frigates. Based on the MK-5/7 patrol ship, the scale-up design is suitable for a wide range of low-to medium-intensity combat tasks, including surface patrol and economic sea area maintenance. The full-load displacement is 3250 tons. In order to reduce the upper weight and facilitate the navigation performance, the superstructure is made of aluminum alloy. As the fire accident exposed the flammable properties of aluminum alloy, the subsequent ships switched to steel to build the superstructure.
The marble bow statue of the British fifth class frigate 'The Old Father Thames'
The statue is a cultural relic dating back to 1823, which was a five class frigate with 46 guns built at Chatham Shipbuilding. The statue is a carefully carved marble male half body, depicting an angry river god and undoubtedly representing the spirit of the Thames River. The statue is known as the 'Old Father Thames' and was taken from the fifth class frigate HMS Thames (1823). The Thames River is an important river that serves as the main trade route to the busiest port in London. It is an important shipbuilding center with royal docks and numerous private companies, and the statue is now housed in the National Maritime Museum in London.
