France’s Naval Group has won a €750 million order from UAE for two Gowind corvettes, French La Tribune reported this morning.
The deal has options for an additional two units in the class.
Naval Group has already supplied Gowind ships to the Egyptian Navy and the Royal Malaysian Navy.
Displacing 2,700 tonnes, the two corvettes are to be armed with Raytheon Evolved Sea Sparrow Missiles (ESSM) for air-defense, and MBDA’s Exocet MM40 anti-ship missiles.
