Philippine Navy is looking into buying Maesteale-class frigate from Italy


According to MaxDefense, Philippine Navy is waiting for its request to inspect the ship in Italy.

The Maestrale-class frigates were primarily designed for anti-submarine warfare (ASW), however the ships are highly flexible so they are also capable of anti-air and anti-surface operations.

Myanmar Navy’s new LPD ‘Moattama’ in Vladivostok
Myanmar-Navys-new-LPD-Moattama-in-Vladivostok-1-770x410.jpg


Myanmar’s LPD was built in South Korea by DAE SUN Shipbuilding & Engineering Co., Ltd. A contract for the Moattama was likely signed in early 2018, but the construction of the vessel for Myanmar became publicly known only after it was launched in Busan in July 2019. It was delivered in September of this year. It is making this port-of-call in Russia on its maiden voyage from South Korea, before reaching Myamar. Its design is based on the South Korean-built Makassar-class of the Indonesian Navy but is visually closer to the Tarlak-class of the Philippine Navy. A total 10 ships of this type have been built so far for the navies of Indonesia, Peru, the Philippines, and now Myanmar. The design is said to be very affordable.
