In WWI this took the form of camouflage that used deception as its prime element, with ships being painted in stark dazzle patterns able to deceive the enemy as to the direction, speed and range of the vessel. Since the dawn of war at sea, inventors and military thinkers have dreamed of warships being invisible to the enemy. Since the Visby class entered service, much has been written regarding these ships being the first commissioned warships with the ability to be actually invisible to radar and indeed across the electro magnetic spectrum. The Guided Missile Patrol Vessel - PGG K32 Helsingborg We also continue with the build of the Soviet Aviation Cruiser Kiev, plus our Mystery Picture slot. For the first time in any publication, we have a detailed research photo file on Helsingborg, a Swedish Visby class stealth corvette. Welcome once again to our regular sortie into the world of fighting ships. Pic 10: Looking carefully at the base of the stanchions it will be seen that those on the afterdeck can be dropped down.

Pic 6: The gun turret is radar reflective. Pic 5: Helsingborg is fitted with 57mm dual purpose gun.

Pic 4: A more recognisable hull in this shot of the bows showing the spray rails. Pic 3: Bridge and foremast almost as one and a departure from conventional design. Pic 2: A hull design that owes much of its shape to a more conventional hardchine design. Presently one of the most advanced stealth warships and reputed to be almost invisible in a combat scenario.
