(See) Korvetten Klasse Sa'ar 72 / Reshef-Klasse / S-80-Klasse

[Schneemann]

Pläne für eine neue Korvetten-Klasse der israelischen Marine: Nach gegenwärtigem Stand werden diese Schiffe wohl ca. 75 m lang sein und rund 800 ts verdrängen, womit sie deutlich kleiner wären als die Sa'ar-5- und Sa'ar-6-Klassen, aber beinahe doppelt so groß wie die Einheiten der Sa'ar-4-Klasse, die sie ersetzen sollen.

Besatzungsstärke liegt wohl bei um die 50 bis 60 Mann, Antrieb erfolgt über zwei MTU-Diesel mit vermutlich jeweils 8.000 PS, Reichweite soll um die 5.000 Kilometer betragen, Höchstfahrt bei 30 Knoten.

Israel Shipyards Unveils New Corvette Design

Announced at Eurosatory 2022, held this week in Le Bourget-Paris, Israel Shipyards developed a new corvette designated the S-80 class. The S-80 is a derivative of the earlier SA’AR S-72 design, which has so far been used for the Israeli Navy’s RESHEF class missile boats. The new S-80 corvette is intended to be a multi-role vessel and compared to the earlier S-72 design it features greater capacity for payload, weapon systems and broader electronic warfare (EW) capabilities, along with greater range and endurance. During the launch ceremony, it was mentioned that already several other countries besides the IDF Navy are interested in this new offering. [...]

Renk will supply the gear boxes for the new ships, unless otherwise requested by the customer. Israel Shipyards has a both a strong cooperative and customer footprint in the EMEA defence and civilian market. [...] The vessel measures 80 metres long, powered by four diesel engines and two shaft lines, providing a maximum speed of over 28 knots, and is equipped with a variable-pitch propeller system. The S-80 can be operated as a corvette or as an offshore patrol vessel (OPV) version, depending on user requirement.

Israeli Navy Reveals Reshef Corvette Plans

The Israeli Navy is looking to have the first of its new Reshef class corvettes in service at the start of 2027, according to the head of the navy’s platform development branch. [...]

Intended to replace ageing Sa’ar 4.5 strike craft of the Israeli Navy, the Reshef design will be a heavily-armed 1,000-ton displacement patrol corvette equipped for combat operations as well as maritime security in Israel’s Exclusive Economic Zone and protection of critical infrastructure in territorial waters. Israel Shipyards, based in Haifa, was awarded a contract for the detailed design of the new class in August 2021.

According to Commander Kudish, detailed design work is continuing ahead of the start of the build phase in late 2023/early 2024. [...] Specific features of the Reshef design identified by Commander Kudish include a 76/62 gun forward, Rafael’s C-Dome point defence missile system, the IAI Elta ELM-2258 rotating AESA radar, space amidships for sea-skimming anti-ship missiles, twin Rafael Typhoon 30 mm remote weapon mountings, and soft-kill decoy launchers. Provisions in the design will also enable the future retrofit of a high energy laser weapon system.
