The vessel, RoKS Nampo (570), was unveiled in Ulsan on 27 May in a ceremony presided over by South Korean vice defence minister Lee Young-geol, the shipbuilder said.
Nampo has been built according to the Future Frigate Experimental (FFX) design under the MLS-II programme, which called for a mine warfare vessel with reduced radar cross-section (RCS) features. The vessel can accommodate a crew of 120 and one medium-sized helicopter in its hangar.
