Bruh...
we are challenging the first four to be delivered by 2024 are you kidding me??!!! let's put some Chinese levels shipbuilding here.....let's say fincantieri bagged the contract and they accept the challenge if we want it by 2024 so this year for contract's signing is a MUST
Does he know what he is speaking about?
How could Italy start construction of 4 hulls at once and complete all and deliver until end of 2024 while a ship typically has 2 years from steel cutting to launching and another 2 until being commissioned while capacity of shipyard(s) allows for 1 ship per year to be launched (or rather distanced by 8 months).
Italy is currently building 2 hulls for themselves and to be delivered in 2025, one of those are laid in February another will be on next year or end of this year. It takes 4 years to commission a single hull. Even if they put their own hulls on sale, it won't catch up the schedule.
While the export variant made for Egypt nearly took 3.5+ years* because it lacks some systems.
Can he at least spare a second and look at FREMM wikipedia page to see how long does it take for a FREMM to be made?
Can he spare a second to realize he is speaking non-sense?
Even 4+2 scheme doesn't make sense in too many ways, as it is told.
ToT /Training of Indonesian shipyard personnel, this will take time as well.
But only possible if:
2 Hulls are constructed in Italy/equipped in Italy
2 Hulls are constructed in Italy, equipped in Indonesia, thus only bare hulls (with engines, gensets etc core systems installed)
2 Hulls built and equipped in Indonesia.
And in this way 4+2 makes sense for both parties:
2 fully in Italy
2 joint Italy/Indonesia
2 fully in Indonesia.
