Kortenaer-class frigate

The Kortenaer class was a class of anti-submarine frigates of the Royal Netherlands Navy. As some of the other frigates of the 1970s and 1980s, they featured a COGOG (combined gas or gas) propulsion system with separate cruise and sprint gas turbines. Ten were built by in Vlissingen and two by Wilton-Fijenoord in Schiedam between 1978 and 1982. Only 10 served with the Royal Netherlands Navy: two were sold to Greece while still under construction and replaced by two Jacob van Heemskerck-class frigates which are basically an anti-air warfare (AAW) variant of the Kortenaer class. The Greek frigates were renamed the Elli class.
