Egypt has received two new frigates and a submarine as it celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of its Navy. The Egyptian Ministry of Defence announced on 18 October that the first Gowind-class corvette El Fateh (971) and second Type 209/1400 submarine S42 (864) had arrived at the naval base in Alexandria.
A week later, on 26 October, the Egyptian military announced that the Pohang class corvette ENS Shabab Misr arrived in Alexandria from South Korea. It was previously known as ROKS Jinju and was decommissioned by the Republic of Korea Navy in December last year. [...]
The arrival of the El Fateh and S42 followed their joint delivery and exercise at sea with the French Navy. S42 is the second of four Type 209 submarines ordered from ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) in 2011 and 2014. It was handed over on 8 August in Kiel, Germany after S41 was handed over in December 2016 and delivered this April.
