The contract is part of the anti-submarine warfare frigates programme – a joint venture between the Netherlands and Belgian Navies – and provides both countries with two frigates each and two naval gun systems per frigate.
 
Stefan Löfström, marketing & sales director at BAE Systems Bofors, said: “This key milestone will ensure the new frigates have the cutting-edge capabilities they require, with the addition of our advanced 3P ammunition.

“BAE Systems continues to support our NATO allies by delivering enhanced capabilities to help to keep Europe safe,”
 
The contract includes installation, training, documentation, spares and tools with an option for BAE Systems’ 3P programmable ammunition and additional guns for training purposes. The first gun is scheduled for delivery in 2026.
 
The Bofors 40Mk4 is a compact and lightweight naval gun system designed for anti-aircraft and anti-surface warfare operations. It can switch seamlessly among ammunition types, which delivers versatile targeting of air, land and sea-based threats.
