One of my first drawings/kitbashes. In the book 'Koninklijke Marine' by F.G.A Woudstra there is a conceptual drawing of the M-frigate as it would have looked around 1988. One of the most notable aspects of the ship would be the goalkeeper up front and a NSSM launcher on top of the hangar.

Specifications back then where:

Displacement: 2700 tons
Length: 105m
Beam: 13m
Depth: 4m
Speed: 30 knots
Weapons: 1x 76mm gun, 1x goalkeeper, 8x Harpoons, 1x Mk29 launcher & 4x torpedo tubes.
Crew: 80

It was designated as a light surface combatant
