TSAMTO, February 10. Construction for the Brazilian Navy of the Tamandare-class multi-purpose frigate (MEKO A-100) will begin in September.

During the visit, the admiral got acquainted with the progress of equipping and preparing the enterprise for the construction of frigates. In the future, the company will allow Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems to build not only frigates for the Brazilian Navy, but also ships for customers from other South American countries.

As planned, the share of national content in the design of the lead ship will be 30%, and the rest - 40%.

The cost of the program is estimated at 9.1 billion reais ($2 billion).

The construction of the lead ship is scheduled to begin in 2022. The lead frigate is to be launched in October 2024 and handed over to the Brazilian Navy in September 2025. Deliveries of all four frigates are tentatively scheduled for the period from 2025 to 2028.
