Summary

Description
English: AWM Caption: Port Phillip Bay, Victoria (Australia), 1953. Port side view of the former destroyer HMAS Quadrant (F01) after her conversion to an anti submarine frigate. Externally her destroyer origins are indicated only by her funnel and hull as all superstructure above the upper deck has been replaced. The ship's new armament consists of a twin 40 mm Bofors Mark 5 AA mounting forward and 4 inch mark 16 guns in a twin mark 19 mounting aft. Note the launching rails for flare rockets fitted to the side of the mounting. The guns are controlled by the close range blind fire director sited just forward of the 4 inch mounting. a squid anti submarine mortar is fitted aft and is a distinguishing feature of this vessel, the remainder of the class having the longer barrelled limbo. A type 277 height finding radar is fitted just above the bridge. Type 293q air surface search and type 974 navigation radars are fitted to the foremast. The ship has not yet been commissioned and is flying the red ensign. She is also not fully fitted out, missing her mainmast. (Naval Historical Collection)
