Future Multirole Frigate of the Royal Netherlands Navy and Belgium Naval Component
Length: 136 m
Beam: 18 m
DW: 4400 t (standard) 5100 t (Full load)
The frigate’s heavy weight comes because part of the ship (bridge + Command Centre) will be armored with 10 to 25 mm armor against RPG’s and medium calibers (up to 20mm HE).
The ships armament will be :
- 5 inch (127mm) LW Dual purpose gun with Vulcan Ammo
- 24 Cell VLS for SM-2* and ESSM
- 4 12,5 mm Automatic Heavy Machine Guns
- 8 Naval Strike Missile’s ( anti ship / Land Attack)
- 2 Dual torpedo tubes for ASW and anti surface torpedoes
- 1 30mm Goalkeeper MK2 CIWS
- 1 RAM CIWS

The ship will carry 1 NH-90 NFH + 2 VTOL UAV’s, under the helicopter deck a flexbay will be fitted for with a slipway and two side doors for small boats and unmanned boats. The flexbay can be fitted out with multiple modules including: ASW , Anti-pirate/drug/terrorism , Mine Countermeasure , Mine laying and Special Forces Support.
The ship can hold up to 50 special forces for 14 days or 75 evacuees for 12 days.

@vossiej : thanks for helping some major detailing to let the ship look real cool !
* -> SM-2 later will be replaced by SM-6 as placed in drawing. And for fun a version with the new OTO Melara 76 mm DART gun system

Very nice! Looks like a good replacement for the M-frigates or as complement of the current ships.
Try to add some more details to the VLS, it looks undetailed from the rest of the ship.

Very nice design.

That's not an SM-2, but other than that, it looks like a good design.

Yeah it has to be the future replacement of the SM-2 called the SM-6 so thats my mistake in the text i did used a SM-2 in first versions but later replaced it by SM-6 because this also is a future design.

The SM-6 is externally identical to the SM-2, just like the block 1 SM-3s.
