"Responsible for both defense and invasion": France begins construction of the first FDI-class frigate

The French company Naval Group on December 16 laid the keel of the first "frigate of defense and intervention" (FDI), ordered for the country's navy, thereby starting the implementation of a new program in the interests of fleet... Its construction will be carried out at the Lorient shipyard.

The frigate is due to be handed over to the fleet in 2024. In total, a series of five ships is expected to be built, which will be delivered between 2024 and 2030. The first frigate will be named "Admiral Ronark" in honor of the naval commander who distinguished himself during the First World War.

This program strengthens the technological leadership of the French naval industrial base

- noted in the company.

The large export potential of the project is indicated. Currently, negotiations are underway for Greece to acquire three FDI frigates.

FDI is positioned as a "high seas ship". Its displacement is 4500 tons, the length is 122 meters, the autonomy of navigation is 45 days, the crew is 125 sailors and 28 paratroopers, the power plants are capable of delivering a maximum speed of 27 knots. The name of the project is not given by chance - the frigate is responsible for both defense and invasion (as they say in France itself), possessing both means of defense against aviation, submarines and surface ships, and the capabilities of special operations.

The FDI armament is represented by Exocet MM40 B3C anti-submarine missiles, Aster 15/30 missiles, MU90 anti-submarine torpedoes, and artillery. The new generation Seafire radar is responsible for target control. A helicopter in the 10-ton class can be placed on board, such as the NH90 or the promising JLH (Joint Light Helicopter) and UAVs (weighing up to 700 kg). The frigate can receive a spetsnaz detachment with two landing boats.

And the French are great. Their defense and electronics are at the highest level. There is a lot to learn from them.

[TermNachTer]

Especially cool - rockets "exoset", 50 years ago. With modern air defense systems, it is absolutely useless scrap metal.

[nks]

In fact, the latest modification (block 3c) of exosets was made just recently and is just entering service.

Reality disagrees with you

[TermNachTer]

Remind me of the last effective use of this RCC))) Falklands can be omitted.

[nks]

Of course, there is no application of this modification - it is only entering service, but in general, here
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%98%D0%BD%D1%86%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BD%D1%82_%D1%81_%D1%84%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B3%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%BC_%C2%AB%D0%A1%D1%82%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BA%C2%BB


You, in turn, can recall the last effective work of air defense against a similar anti-ship missile system, well, or the effective use of an anti-ship missile system that is relevant in your opinion.

[TermNachTer]

How is this modification fundamentally different from the one that was put into service 50 years ago? Effective air defense work against subsonic missile launchers - for example, in Syria. How many "axes" hit targets out of several dozen launched? Everyone agrees that with modern air defense systems, a subsonic anti-ship missile system is wasted money and a dangerous illusion for l / s.

[nks]

Quote: TermNachTER

How is this modification fundamentally different from the one that was put into service 50 years ago?

First of all, the GOS and the engine / fuel, and so everything else is a little - just the same class - subsonic in the same mass and dimensions and the same aerodynamic configuration with an ultra-low-altitude approach to the target.

Quote: TermNachTER

How many "axes" hit targets out of several dozen launched?

Not at all - you don't even have to start arguing. In addition, this is a different case - this is not a rocket launcher and they fly at 50-100 meters, but an exocet of 5 meters and below.

PS: I understand that you have no examples.

[TermNachTer]

The principle of operation for "axes", and for "harpoons" and for "exosets" is the same - subsonic. They are relatively simple targets even for MZA, not to mention modern air defense systems. As I understand it, they continue to be kept in service for one simple reason - there is nothing else - there is nothing anyway)))

[molyr]

but what about 27 knots? I remember crying so much that our 29th gave out

[avg avg]

You do not understand, this is different!

[singless]

probably watched the series the last ship. Oh well

[Cat Alexandrovich]

Invasion, 28 paratroopers ... This is definitely against China!

[forcecom]

Do you think we have more on frigates / corvettes? it's not a UDC all the same

[Engineer Schukin]

Funny to read.
The French are shipbuilders, hahah.

While they are dying, we are already building the world's best frigates with Zircons in series.

However, our sailors need to train on someone else, as the targets for the exercises will come down. Let them hyster later as much as they like.

We brought them to their knees two centuries ago, but we didn’t give the order to get up yet. Know ours!

[singless]

they need a dwarf emperor.

If you mean Napoleon, then he finished badly.
It is unlikely that they want to repeat.

Sorry again, Alexey. A little for your education
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_bow
The Sumvolt is far from the first modern ship with an inverted nose, but perhaps the most unsuccessful. Although, of course, any experience should be taken into account, albeit negative, I believe that in the case of FDI this was not required either.

PS: The news title is not entirely correct. The text correctly states that the keel has been laid, but construction began in 2019 by cutting metal.

Surprised ... I was on a ship with an inverted nose at the age of three

The French love to make revolutions. This frigate iron will enter the Thames

will lead France 70 years to a bright end.

[Avior]

It is far from the Thames to the Louvre.

But the French have some experience in this matter, no doubt.

[nks]

hmm, the first option was more realistic ... Is Friday just beginning?)

[Avior]

Zamvolt can rather be called not brought to mind. The potential of the ship has not been revealed at all by the cuts in construction and armament for it.

[nks]

This is a separate big topic. Everything is much more complicated there. In general, the Americans have recently had few technically successful projects.

[Alien From]

They calculated, so it is less noticeable. These misers of the grandmother will not be blown away.

[Avior]

The frigate goes like a new series after Lafayette
76 mm melara, 16-32 cells for Aster 15/30, 8 exosets, costs 420 euros apiece in 2017 prices.
At the same time, there is a version of Lafayette - Formideble - with the same capabilities - a displacement of 3200, at a price at the time of manufacture 1,6 billion for 6 pieces, that is, 265 million apiece

It's hard to understand the French or there are some details that are not voiced, but that are important

[Alex777]

It's simple. Exactly like in Britain.
There are expensive Type-26 and FREMM.
And there are cheap Type-31 and FDI.

[Avior]

Lafight, which FDI inherits, is the cheap line. The French have an expensive line - it's also FREMM. The question arises - why the Lafayette did not simply continue in the Formidebl version (the French did this version for Singapore), if there is no formal improvement in characteristics? Or do we just don’t know some subtleties?

[Alex777]

Lafayette has been outdated for 30 years.
Formidable in 20 years.
Therefore, they make a new FDI.

[Avior]

With the same weaponry, one to one

[Alex777]

Quote: Avior

With the same weaponry, one to one

REO is different. GUS is cooler.

On Formidebl 32 slots under Aster 15/30, on French FDI - only 16

The place is reserved there. You can also add.
The ship is tailored for modern tasks.

[Avior]

What kind of problem was to put another gas and rab? Quite often they do it on the same project for a specific customer.
As for the cells, well, they would be reduced if the tasks are now like this. Why a new project from scratch? With the same parameters?

[Alex777]

I don't know the exact reasons, of course.
But increasing the range by 20% required
increasing VI, IMHO. And away we go ...

[nks]

1.FDI is still significantly higher (VI> 4000)
2. Opportunities are also more (only Aster 30 is worth what)
3. Over a quarter of a century, general inflation gives at least x1,5 value (and for individual components / materials, everything can be more different)
So for about the same price, more VI and opportunities

[Avior]

1.it is bigger, but the possibilities are the same
2. On Formidebl there are 32 cells under Aster 15/30, on the French FDI - only 16, 32 are supposed to be in Greek. Otherwise, the possibilities are similar. The crew is only on Formidebl less.

weaponry
1 76-mm Otobreda cannon
8 Exocet MM40 block 3C missiles
16 Aster missiles
2 х 2 torpedoes MU90
2 20mm remote controlled cannons
Non-lethal weapons of passive electronic warfare 1
Baits
Aircraft
1 NH90 NFH helicopter
Drone

Virtually the same armament as Formidebl. Only Formidebl has an additional 16 slots for Aster and a couple of more torpedoes.
3. R&D alone = 1,7 billion euros for new frigates. Although there was a finished project.

[nks]

In general, the differences are obvious (if you look closely at the weapons). Formidable is a development of LaFayette, he also required R&D, if the French ordered new frigates based on Formidable, then a modification with R&D would also be required. As a result, the project would still be modernized, but not entirely relevant, which is also not very relevant for export prospects. That is, the same Greeks would not have bought the formidable. And about the budgets you indicated - I'm not sure if they are correct.

[Avior]

the differences are obvious (if you look closely at the armament)

And you are not in general terms, but specifically
Well, for example, instead of a 76 mm gun, a new frigate is equipped with .... which one?
I took the budgets from the Internet, I have not seen the originals. Perhaps the price also depended on the fact that some were built in Singapore, and not in France.

[nks]

What are you comparing - French LaFayets with French FDIs or export Formidables with export FDIs?)
I'll try to explain a little from the other end. I do not want to rummage through the internet about the cost now, but the price you indicated (you, I suppose, took it from the English wiki, but there are no proofs for it) of the construction looks like the truth, then the cost of R&D is of course clearly overestimated (I can guess what is the error there). It is enough to look at the turnover of the naval group, the share of other projects in it and the duration of the FDI program, that 1,7 yards cannot be obtained there. I believe FDI R&D was 5+ times less than the amount you specified. And if you are talking about money, then this R&D is already being fought off by the very first Greek export contract.
If we talk about the technical component, then, of course, you can (as I understand it, you suggested something similar above) in the existing project, including its size and even the shape of the nose, increasing the autonomy and seaworthiness, adding space for the TLU and the data center , redesigning cable channels, changing the superstructure and recalculating the stability for a new radar, etc., etc. But if you have ever participated in a technical development project, no matter even what, then you should know that there is a threshold of change, up to which you may save resources and reduce risks using a mature project, and after that it is cheaper and less risky to make a completely new one. a project, especially if you have experience and baggage of proven individual solutions.


This is all omitting the discussion about when a heavily modified project crosses the line and becomes essentially a new project.

PS: And about the possibilities - well, look at least a presentation video.

[Avior]

I participated in the development of technical projects
And I compare Formidebl as an existing modification of Lafayette
He has a similar autonomy and cruising range with the new ships.
You can also read that Formidebla are distinguished by good seaworthiness.

They can act as an information center for the formation of ships.

There is no need to add Vpu, Formidebl has no less of them than the new one. To put the radar fresh is also not a problem, the same manufacturer.
Thus, alterations in order to modernize will not be significant.
But to make a new ship of a new project from scratch - here there is no way without R&D.
As for the possibilities, I did not see a noticeable increase or even a noticeable change. Perhaps to modernize electronics, but this is not a problem for a long time.

[nks]

Autonomy of FDI is ~ 20% more than that of formidable (fdl), for FDI 32xA50 for fdl 16xA50 + 16xA43 (they are shorter and for a reason),
SeaFire radar is generally such a room, since it involves maintenance practically on the go and the Data Center is also a separate significant volume that requires
also significant communications, fdl's seaworthiness is good, but this does not mean that it cannot be improved and this is important both for the use of weapons and for efficiency (including autonomy), etc.

Not knowing why you are so persistent in not wanting to read carefully, I can’t help you with anything else - sorry. :)

[Avior]

I just read everything carefully

FDI autonomy is ~ 20% more than formidable (fdl)

Can you give a link to the source?
range at Formidebl

Rayon d'action 5 nautiques à 000 nœuds/ 15 km à 4 nœuds
Range 5000 nautical miles at 15 knots / 4000 km at 27 knots

That is, exactly the same as that of the new frigate.
The autonomy of the new frigate is 45 days. LaFayette has an autonomy of 50 days, according to Formidebl I did not find such a parameter, but they write that it is more than Lafayte.

FDI 32xA50 for fdl 16xA50 + 16xA43 (they are shorter and for a reason),

Is it so important that everyone is the same size? All the same, part will be Aster15, they are important against targets at extremely low altitudes. As for the French themselves, they generally put only 16 cells, which suggests that this factor is not very important for them.

SeaFire radar is generally such a room, since it involves maintenance practically on the go and the Data Center is also a separate significant volume that requires
also essential communications

With this, Formidebl has no problem, it is designed just with these requirements in mind.

Formidable-class frigates are designed as nodes of the integrated command and control network of the Singapore Armed Forces, built on a principle similar to the American network-centric systems. The main components of the network are a shipborne combat control system developed in Singapore and a dual data transmission system based on the Fast Ethernet protocol [6].

Each frigate has a zone of responsibility with a radius of 360 km, where it acts as a mobile operational center, receiving information from ships of the same type and air objects that are within reach. The combat control system integrates all available information, creating a complete picture of the combat zone and transfers it to coastal operators and other participants in the operation [15

Of course, electronics, including radars, require updating, time does not stand still. But there is nothing fundamentally complicated in this, and the Formidebl radar is placed in the same way, structurally it has the same rigidly fixed antennas, and, by the way, their radar and other electronics are not very bad even today ..

fdl's seaworthiness is good, but this does not mean that it cannot be improved and this is important both for the use of weapons and for efficiency (including autonomy), etc.

Lafayette frigates were originally designed as stealth frigates with good seaworthiness,

The effective scattering area of ​​the frigates "Lafayette" was the same as that of a small patrol ship with a displacement of 500 tons.

at the same time, for the Formidebl, both parameters were further improved, along the way replacing the composite elements at Lafayette with steel at Formidebl.

The main design feature of the frigate hull is constructive measures to reduce the effective scattering area of ​​the radio signal. They include inclined surfaces of sides, bulwarks and superstructures, hiding of various external equipment behind radio-absorbing screens. Compared to its prototype, the frigate Lafayette, and its other modifications, Formidable has a significantly improved radio profile [4] due to the smaller superstructure and the closed radar mast technique used [5]. The frigate is built entirely of steel, in contrast to Lafayette, in which composite materials are widely used in the aft superstructure to save weight [6]. Compared to the prototype, the frigates demonstrate better seaworthiness and greater autonomy [7].

I have not seen anywhere information that the seaworthiness of the new frigate is fundamentally better than that of Formidebl.
It is assumed that the ship, which is being built to replace the old one according to a completely new project, must have a higher level of capabilities, otherwise it makes no sense to fence the city, you can simply upgrade the existing project, it is much easier, faster and cheaper. Compared to the original Lafayette of the French Navy, this is so, the new ships differ fundamentally in their capabilities. But in comparison with the Singaporean Formidebles of the French construction, nothing of the kind is observed. Therefore, the question arose - why was it necessary?
Sorry, I did not see any explanation for this in you, although, perhaps, they are.

Ask the Greeks.

I know.
For targets at extremely low altitudes - and this is one of the very common classes of targets - the range of Aster 15 is sufficient.
Because some of the A43 cells are not relevant, half of them will be Aster 15 anyway

no thales heracles is such a spinning thing

the more there is more for a new place - you can remove the antenna drive, the space will be free. Everything else will not change, and the weight will even decrease.

[nks]

You still figure out your motivation, and for the last time I will try to help you adjust your cognitive apparatus.

Quote: Avior

on the link did not see a word about autonomy.

There are different types of autonomy. The autonomy associated with the habitability of the crew (this is exactly what is indicated in the day on the wiki) primarily depends on the reserves of provisions and living conditions. As for the provisions, each operator calculates based on their consumption standards and, well, can ask the designer to make, if possible, some small changes in this regard. There is autonomy for the duration of database maintenance, etc. - we will not talk about them here. There is an autonomy for the power reserve - that's what we're talking about. Wiki is a good tool, including one that allows you to assess the reliability of the specified data. There is no proof for that. I trust the official data of the operator more. The wording "more than 3500" is common, it usually means a slight excess, so as not to indicate the exact data. And in order to think otherwise, one must have reason. For example, I understand that "In excess of 25 knots" may well mean all 30 knots, because it is not for nothing that the Singaporeans wanted 2 times more power from the SU (by the way, the actual maximum speed on French ships can be slightly higher declared - specified in the specs, this is the standard that they _must_ meet and the power plant is selected in accordance with this requirement, but it is clear that they cannot be calculated with an accuracy of HP) and just in connection with this, the cruising range is in no way may just grow so significantly (this more powerful SU consumes more). In turn, for FDI, with a lower power compared to fdl and a higher VI, 27 nodes are indicated, so I think the Naval Group's hydrodynamic engineers did not receive their salaries for nothing. In general, about seaworthiness - google the data on the advantages of an inverted nose in the light of modern developments.

Quote: Avior

Well, probably professionals work in the Greek Defense Ministry and they assess modern threats like this and want to have more operational capabilities. By the way, I don’t know if it will convince you

OMG !!! Can't you see the difference in dimensions (including height)? Don't you understand that you need to provide an access channel for service and other communications? Do you have data on mass, since you speak so confidently? Don't you understand that this will require a significant redesign at this point if you take fdl?

[Avior]

Understand your motivation after all.

you sort it out with yours to begin with.

There are different types of autonomy.

Autonomy and power reserve are not the same thing. These are different characteristics.

The wording "more than 3500" is common, it usually means a slight excess

it is obvious that you do not understand what you are writing about. The range depends on the travel speed. For 18 knots, for example, the Fordimable has a range of 4200 miles. Of course, at high speed it is much less, at which it will be 3500.
I took the range at a speed of 15 knots so that it could be compared, since for the new frigate the range is given for this very speed.

The wording "more than 3500" is common, it usually means a slight excess, so as not to indicate the exact data

this wording in relation to weapons means that the party does not want to disclose accurate data. And in this particular case, it also means that with a decrease in travel speed, the range will increase.

In general, about seaworthiness - google the data on the advantages of an inverted nose

I know about it, below I gave a video. But this is general data, and not in relation to a specific situation. There is no reason to say that the seaworthiness of the new frigate has changed markedly compared to Formidebl.

By the way, I don’t know if it will convince you
this, but when testing PAAMS against a supersonic low-altitude anti-ship missile system, it was Aster 30 that was used

a false statement will not convince anyone

In May 2019, HMS Defender (D36), during the Formidable Shield exercise, destroyed a drone simulating a high-velocity, low-altitude munition attack. [2] During these exercises, the French frigate FS Bretagne, using an Aster 15 anti-aircraft missile, destroyed a supersonic missile flying at a speed of more than 2 Mach (2400 km / h) [3].

Well, probably professionals work in the Greek Defense Ministry and they assess modern threats like this and want to have more operational capabilities.

and in the French navy, then, amateurs, in your opinion? They also estimate the required number of TLUs to be 2 times less than the Greeks.
Forgive me, you are just making up arguments.

Do you have data on mass, since you speak so confidently?

I don’t, like you. And you speak so confidently ... I see that the radar is of a similar type, and the new one is structurally simpler and lighter.

You don’t understand that this would require a significant redesign at this location.

and this is many times easier than making a completely new project with the same capabilities.
I see that you have run out of arguments, and you have begun to frankly stretch them. I will not bother you. I see no point in further discussing this issue with you.

[Flooding]

Armament FDI presented anti-submarine missiles Exocet MM40 B3C

more precisely anti-ship

[Bad_gr]

The ship's design is peculiar, but it looks quite dignified.

Previously, we paid attention to this and the ships had formidable, impetuous outlines. But the fashion for stealth came and ships of the 22160 type appeared, which had neither appearance nor weapons.

[Barberry25]

Well, on the patrolmen that the containers are not ready, it is not their fault, but on the whole, the scheme of work of ships with diesel engines from Kolomenty and a displacement of 1 tons has been worked out, you can lay light corvettes with 500 uvp, 8 mm cannon, armor, a package, a platform for a turntable and sonar a set from the Guardian, we will get an inexpensive corvette with a range of 76 km

[timokhin-aa]

sonar kit from Guarding

Hydroacoustic, not sonar.
For your information, the bulbous GAS "Zarya" at 20380/20385 increases the draft by 3 meters - it is 4,5 on the keel, 7,5 on the bulb

How are you going to shove IT into a small corvette?

PS And people have enough audacity to express their opinions ...

[Barberry25]

Those. only Timokhin and Klimov have an opinion on topvar? And the "small corvette" of 1 tons is not so small ..

[timokhin-aa]

Opinion should not run counter to the real world, for example, with the dimensions of the GAS Zarya antenna.

You have to think what you say.
Why, before speaking about the role of naval artillery, I played a counter battle of ship strike groups in different compositions on special software, and only then said I needed guns, why, before speaking on the topic of the ultimate "strike" from Kuznetsov, I sat and drew the conclusion of aircraft to the launching positions on the deck, in consultation with a specialist who participated in the creation of the Su-33 on the topic of permitted intervals between aircraft by distance and time, and only then spoke out?
The opinion should be based on real facts, and the facts cannot be interpreted as you want, they just are and that's it.
We take the Chinese 056 as a standard for a small corvette with anti-submarine capabilities, find its side view on a known scale, then find a side view of 20380, bring it to the same scale, then cut out the bulb from 20380 in the paint, put it on 056 just to understand the scale, and already THEN we express ourselves.

This is how decent people do when they are not blamed for speaking out.

[Barberry25]

horror then what ... then I'm waiting for the next time a similar comment from you under Klimov's speeches about "anti-aircraft missiles of different air defense systems have the same dimensions, which means they need to be shoved into single cells, and it is better to make them universal." rockets are built according to different principles, by different manufacturers and with different tasks .. And yes, if Zarya does not fit in there, then we don’t have other GAS anymore?

[Barberry25]

and yes .. as I understand, apart from Bulba, there are no complaints about the very project of a light corvette / patrol based on Karakurt with 8 UVP, Armor, Packet, 76 mm cannon and a displacement of 1 tons with Kolomna engines?

[Castro Ruiz]

Quite balancing the frigates.
Step up to par with Lafayette.

[Orsis338]

I did not understand what was in favor of the invasion, offensive weapons in the form of CD were not declared, or the VO did not tell about it

[Oleg812spb]

Something like "Mustai Karim" is similar. Musier know a lot about perversions ...

[Avior]

it looks like this on the go

[Oleg812spb]

These two have a high tank and are closed at the top, such as combined with the superstructure, so they do not fill up with excitement and do not collect water. The frigate did it differently, apparently counting on more favorable weather conditions.

[Timur_3]

They will pursue a double-digging policy, and this will be taken away from them.

[hostel]

This is a ship of limited capacity. Although, in itself, the project is interesting.
