SOMERSET Back at Sea – the Type 23 Frigate SOMERSET has returned to sea for the first time in nine months following an extensive £20 million docking and revamp at Devonport Naval Base.   The warship’s fighting capability is now among the most advanced in the world, while the living arrangements and main machinery have been improved and overhauled, and a new coat of paint on the hull increases its streamlined efficiency, economy and speed.    Enhancements to the ship’s SEAWOLF missile system, installation of an advanced electronic communications system, and significant improvements to operations room functions have made the Frigate more versatile and agile. In addition, substantial galley improvements will make life at sea more comfortable for the sailors aboard.
