Nicaragua will acquire two patrol boats in the Netherlands

The National Assembly of Nicaragua, at the suggestion of the government, approved the allocation of 9,8 million dollars to finance construction for the Nicaraguan Navy (Fuerza Naval del Ejército de Nicaragua) of two large patrol boats of the project Stan Patrol 4207, reports bmpd with reference to the magazine "Jane's Defense Weekly".

Patrol boat FNH-1402 Morazan - one of two boats of the project Stan Patrol 4207 Navy Honduras.

The order for the construction of boats will be carried out by the international shipbuilding group Damen Shipyards Grou, headquartered in the Dutch city of Gorinchem.

The shipyard “BV Scheepswerf Damen Gorinchem” of the Damen group in the Netherlands will be directly involved in the construction.

Thus, Nicaragua will become the next (approximately the twentieth) customer of the popular Stan Patrol 4207 project on the world market.

Earlier, in the 2008, the Nicaraguan Navy received one 26-meter Stan Patrol 2600 small patrol boat.

The Damen Stan Patrol 43 class 4207-meter boats are armed with an 40-mm artillery mount. They are designed to patrol the exclusive economic zone, the defense of the country, the protection of the rule of law at sea.

And who will object to me now, Who will dispute here that the Dutch are excellent sailors and shipbuilders? Was Nicaragua the wrong choice?

The choice was the right one, but there is one big BUT ... !! In any case, Nicaraguans should have bought something from the Russians, if they buy something with a cache, because the USSR had once put so many weapons for free into the hands of these Nicaraguans (Sandinists) .And in general, an interesting situation arises - as soon as the country needs free weapons or needs an irrevocable loan, the leader of this country begins to brow in the direction of Moscow and in every possible way to curry favor with it. In the end, he gets free weapons. And when the country does not solve any "revolutionary "tasks, and it becomes richer, so she just buys the products of the bourgeois, as in this case.

It always has been.

Everyone loves Holyvy. At one time, the Sandinists were given a lot of weapons for free. For the idea.

[alekc73]

This is our money. Our military-industrial complex is lagging behind. Once Nicaragua preferred their products. Can’t make a boat ????

[Cornelius]

We can’t, it turns out ...

[Dimontius]

I’m embarrassed to ask, why the hell do we need such information? Well, although what is already there, let's tell what else is happening in Honduras, Gabon, Laos? or maybe again slap a warning for insulting the Honduran forum participants?

"why the hell do we have such information?"
The information is important. Just in the direction of the site. For me, the site should regularly post such news, which country purchased which types of equipment. This allows an analysis of trends in the global arms market and the competitiveness of a particular type of equipment

[Dimontius]

please share the conclusion based on an analysis of the trends of the Nicaraguan state defense order

Cool boat! Who knows, understand!

[bk316]

Rolls, yawning, heavy, even floods through the transom. Horror and not a boat. Shame on the Soviet "shipbuilding". This product was worth a lot to many.
Crimea or even Voronezh is better.

One boat from the Atlantic will guard the other from the quiet.))
