Vasco da Gama-class frigate - The core of the Portuguese Navy

Описание: Vasco da Gama, Álvares Cabral and Corte Real are the names of the three warships built in Germany in the late 1980s for the Portuguese Navy.


The class was named in honor of Vasco da Gama, a Portuguese explorer and the first European to reach India by sea. His initial voyage to India was the first to link Europe and Asia by an ocean route, connecting the Atlantic and the Indian oceans and therefore, the West and the Orient.


Based on the MEKO 200 PN design, the ships were built using modular construction techniques. The basic specifications of the frigate include: overall length of 115.9m, a beam of 14.8m and a maximum draft of 5.9m. The full load displacement of the ship is 3,200t.
