		Based on a modified German MEKO 200 design, the ten Anzac class frigates are the major surface units of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) and Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN).
		For a number of reasons related to operational considerations and the electronic environment, the Harpoon installation was relocated from its reserved space and weight position on 02 Deck to a position on 01 Deck forward of the bridge.
		The reasons were complex, but included perceptions the ANZAC frigates offered poor capability for the cost, the frigates were a make work scheme for uncompetitive Australian dock yards and any purchase as surrender to Australian political pressure.

	Talk:ANZAC Day - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		I always understood that the acronym 'Anzac' had long ago ceased to be capitalised in ordinary usage (like 'laser' or 'scuba', the two examples in Acronym), and that ANZAC was generally used to refer to older usage.
		The Australian War Memorial seems to be one of the few sites consistent in any degree—using 'ANZAC' for all references to the day and the soldiers.
		Bean uses "ANZAC" for the army corps and "Anzac" for everything else ("Anzac sector", "Anzac Cove", "Anzac Beach", "Anzac Gully", etc.) Also, it's HMAS Anzac, not "HMAS ANZAC".
