This is actually the Guided Missile Frigate HMAS Newcastle (FFG-06), zoom in and you can see the 06 on the flight deck. Newcastle is one of three FFG's based at Fleet Base East, the other two are HMAS Sydney (FFG-03) and HMAS Melbourne (FFG-05). No Anzac class Frigaters are based in FBE at the time this pic was taken.
