The Italian Navy’s newest frégate européenne multi-mission (FREMM) frigate, Antonio Marceglia, has completed its sea trials. ITS Marceglia is the eighth vessel in a series of ten European FREMM frigates developed by Fincantieri for the navy as part of an Italo-French cooperation programme. It is the fourth Italian general purpose ship scheduled for delivery in 2019.
The joint programme is being carried out under the coordination of the international organisation for cooperation on arms, the Organisation Conjointe de Coopération en matière d’Armement (OCCAR).
During five months of sea trials, ITS Marceglia completed all tests that are expected for the platform and combat system equipment. [...] Antonio Marceglia will be designed to accommodate a total of 200 crew members. In addition, the frigate will be capable of travelling at a maximum speed of more than 27k. Under the contractual schedule, ITS Marceglia’s final official acceptance is scheduled for 16 April next year.
