RELIABLE, MULTIROLE CAPABILITY

Our objective is to supply reliable, versatile frigates that allow you to be confident of mission success, no matter the circumstances. We make full use of modular techniques to construct ships built from high-tensile steel that are fully compliant with current NATO standards. Able to conduct operations of up to 10,000 nautical miles, our frigates have an endurance that can stretch to as much as 45 days. This is supported by high levels of crew accommodation and by extensive ship and combat system automation. Displacement can be from 3,000 to 10,000 tonnes and length between 90 and 170 metres.

Our frigates are optimised for excellent seakeeping in adverse weather conditions. Assembled and equipped in accordance with the latest technological standards, they take advantage of the full extent of the German naval shipbuilding sector’s expertise to provide true multirole capabilities. This expands equipment options, speeds completion and eases subsequent maintenance and modernisation. All systems incorporate fully redundant design principles and comply with the most stringent IT security requirements.

AN ENDURING CAPABILITY

NVL Frigates can perform demanding missions in challenging environments. Air defence, anti-submarine warfare or engagements against naval and shore-based targets are all within their capacity. Combat operations requiring surveillance, electronic warfare or command and control capabilities can be undertaken with equal ease. Our frigates can also be called upon for less intensive stabilisation duties, such as actions to suppress piracy and terrorism. Whether operating individually or as the centrepiece of a task group, a frigate from NVL Group steps up to the task.
