  Type 42 destroyer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Type 42, also known as the Sheffield class, is a class of destroyers of the Royal Navy.
The Type 42 Destroyer was built to fill in the gap left by the cancellation of the Type 82 destroyer, it was however, designed to be smaller and more cost effective.
The Type 45s are to be considerably larger; displacing almost 7,400 tonnes, compared to the Type 42 displacement of 4,820 tonnes (Batch I and II) and 5,200 tonnes (Batch III).

 Adobe Fonts - Type 0 through 42
Type 3 fonts use a general "graphics fill" rasterizer; the result is that imaged characters look slightly bolder than they would if expressed as a Type 1 font.
Type 4 refers to the font file organization; the character descriptions are expressed in the Type 1 format.
Type 5 refers to the font file organization; the character descriptions are expressed in the Type 1 format.

 Dragon Models 1/700 British Type 42 Batch 3 Destroyer HMS Manchester
The reason for the class was two-fold, firstly, a much smaller and cheaper alternative to the massive Type 82 destroyer was needed and secondly, sufficient hulls were needed to replace the entire Royal Navy destroyer fleet, heading for block obsolescence in the late 1970's, or already well obsolete.
The role for the Type 42 destroyer was the area air defense of the Royal Navy carrier / landing fleet, with a secondary A/S role.
What a Type 42 hull needed to be able to carry was quite clear, the GWS 30 system - Sea Dart - was required as the primary weapon.

 Type 42
The Type 42 destroyer was developed as a smaller and less expensive alternative to the massive Type 82 destroyer [of which only one was built] that could be built in sufficient numbers to replace the entire Royal Navy destroyer fleet which was heading for block obsolescence in the late 1970's.
Otherwise, the primary change from the Type 82 was the deletion of the Ikara ASW missile and the Limbo ASW mortar, and the addition aft hangar flight deck and helicopter.
The new Type 45 Destroyers are expected to be cheaper to operate and support than the Type 42s, although the cost of individual spares are likely to be slightly higher.

 Sheffield Class Type 42 Destroyers
The principle role of the Sheffield Class Type 42 destroyers is to provide area air defence for a task force and since their introduction into service they have constituted the fleet's principle anti-air warfare capability.
Designated the 'Type 42' the 12 ships were named after large British cities, commemorating many of the Town Class cruisers that fought with such distinction in the Second World War.
Unlike the Type 82 Destroyer, the Type 42 was designed and built with both a helicopter deck and hanger and one of its most versatile weapons is the Lynx helicopter.

 Type 42 destroyer
Considerably cheaper to build than the Type 82 design, the Type 42s lacked Ikara and the obsolete Limbo ASW mortar, and the COSAG (Combined Steam and Gas) propulsion plant was replaced with a COGOG (Combined Gas turbine or Gas turbine) one.
The fl stripe painted down her side was to distinguish her from the two Type 42 destroyers sold to the Argentine Navy.

 Royal Navy: Air Defence Destroyer (Type 45)
When the Type 45 enters service later this decade it will provide the fleet with an air defence capability that is several orders of magnitude greater than that provided by the existing force of Type 42 destroyers.
The Type 45 will succeed the Royal Navy's long-serving Type 42 destroyers, which were designed in the 1960s and came into service between the mid 1970s and mid 1980s.
The Type 45 is large and spacious enough to accommodate lengthened vertical launchers that could carry cruise missiles, should the requirement for a land attack capability arise.

 Naval Technology - Type 45 Daring Class - Anti-Air Warfare Destroyer
The Type 45 programme is benefiting from work done on Horizon, for example the PAAMS weapon system and some of the internal architecture of the ship.
The main mission of the Type 45 anti-air warfare destroyer is to provide local area fleet defence, with long range radar and wide area defence capability.
The Royal Navy's Type 42 Destroyers are to be replaced by the Type 45 destroyers.

 Adelaide B Type No 42   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
This car was built as a "Single truck, straight sill, open cross-bench with reversible seating" (later B Type) in 1909 by Duncan and Fraser.
It is believed that No 42, like all the A1/A2/B Type cars (except 55-58), was last used in the late 1930s, although a number were stored at Hackney Depot until 1946 when they were either scrapped or, in 1947, sold by auction.
In April 1958 a dropcentre tram towed 42 from Hackney Depot, where it had been kept for storing advertising material, to the sidings at the Morphettville Racecourse to join the other three trams already there.

 The Land List -- Film Index
Even after improved film types (Types 42, 43, 44) were introduced, Type 41 continued to be offered as a slightly cheaper alternative film for situations (such as print copying) where panchromatic response wasn't important or necessary.
Type 48 was originally specified as having a film speed of ASA 50, but was quickly bumped up to 75.
Type 87 may have been discontinued as of the late 1990's, but was resurrected in 2003 as part of a re-introduction of the 80-series format to professional markets.

 Type 42 Destroyer (UK)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The demise of the CVA-01 carrier programme and the cancellation of all but one of the Type 82 destroyers left the Royal Navy with a problem in the late 1960s.
The Type 42 was ahead of the County and Type 82 destroyers in terms of computers, electronic systems, sonar (Type 184M and Type 162) and the radar (Type 965, Type 992Q and Type 909) equipment, but lacked the close in defence systems of the County class (Seacat missiles) or the Type 82 (Ikara missiles).
As a result of the Falklands War in which Sheffield and Coventry were sunk, the close in air defence of the Type 42s were improved with the addition of the BMARC GCM-A03 30mm and BMARC GAM-B01 20mm guns and Tracor Super RBOC chaff launchers.

The skate on this plane also is nickel plated which validates it being a type 9 and not a "married" plane.
This last type #42 is very scarce and I would like to hear of others if you know of them.
Notice that the front depth stop foot is slightly shorter, (which is a carry over from the type 8), the difference on this model is that it is nickel plated.

 'D' Class Type 45 Destroyer
It is the third project undertaken by the Royal Navy to replace the Type 42 Destroyers, the first two- NFR 90 and Project Horizon- ended in failure.
The replacement of the Type 42 had become a major problem for the Royal Navy- they were becoming increasingly costly to operate and maintain but more importantly they were approaching obsolescence.
However the revelation that the Type 45 would be known as the ‘D’ Class and the first units Daring and Dauntless came slightly as a surprise as in the run up to the announcement many speculated they would emulate the Type 42 and take the names of British cities.

 Animated Blood Types
Both types are without A and B antigens, but the O Positive (left) has the Rh antigen.
In the case of A-B-O blood incompatibility, the anti-A and anti-B antibodies of a type O mother may enter the circulatory system of a Type A or Type B fetus, thus causing agglutination of the fetal RBCs.
Unlike the A-B-O blood types where all the alleles occur on one pair of loci on chromosome pair #9, the Rh factor involves three different pairs of alleles located on three different loci on chromosome pair #1.

 Re: [Fonts]Re: Xprint
JC> their choice to use Type 42 CIDFonts JS> Given that truetype fonts are much easier to come by than genuine JS> CID-keyed fonts It's funny how we come to opposite conclusions from the very same facts.
In my humble opinion, Type 0 fonts are a hack for doing in the PS interpreter something that really ought to be done in the host (font switching).
I think that using Type 42 CIDFonts (whatever you may think of my terminology) with an option to use Type 1 base fonts is the sweet spot.

 Royal Navy: Type 42 Destroyers
The Type 42 Destroyers form the backbone of the Royal Navy's anti-air capability.
They are equipped with the Sea Dart medium range air defence missile system, which in its primary role is designed to provide area air defence to a group of ships, although it is also effective against surface targets at sea.
In addition to their role as an air defence platform the Type 42 Destroyers operate independently carrying out patrol and boarding operations, recently enforcing UN embargoes in the Gulf and the Adriatic as well as providing humanitarian assistance in Monserrat and East Timor.
