Should the proposal be accepted, Damen has agreed to provide the Brazilian Navy with a Sigma 10514 ship, which is an off-the-shelf vessel that can be customised and adapted according to the clients’ own requirements.

Damen Schelde Naval Shipbuilding Naval Sales director Richard Keulen said: “We at Damen appreciate the increasingly important task of the Brazilian Navy to safeguard the maritime domain against its existent and future threats and challenges.

“We are looking forward to participate in a constructive way in this process.

“We also are confident that our product will integrate perfectly with those of Saab.”

The Brazilian Navy’s CCT project comprises a large technology transfer programme, along with several collaborations with local companies that are expected to benefit the Brazilian defence industry.
