NORTHCOM’s on-line magazine The Watch reports on a week of joint operations between  USCGC Waesche and Canadian Forces including particularly the Frigate Regina. The two ships are in some ways surprisingly similar, sharing the 57mm Bofors gun, Phalanx CIWS, and LM2500 engine.

The story goes on to describe other exercises the Canadian Navy is conducting.
