Sweden has signed a contract with French shipbuilder Naval Group for four frigates, with deliveries scheduled to be completed by 2030.
Naval Group announced the agreement in a press release. The deal makes the French company Sweden’s chosen supplier for the new warships.
The decision also has a Danish angle. Denmark is still searching for new ships and has previously received the same offer from Naval Group.
Danish discussions over a multibillion-kroner warship purchase had appeared to be nearing an end, but the process later stalled after the minister reportedly developed reservations.
