No need to go all crazy with the technology when your main enemy still is in the 60's when it comes to equipment

The FFX Next-Gen Frigate is what that is IIRC. 6 of this batch is planned, then a more stealthy version will be built.

Haha yeas, that's pretty a good saying. They will take the TRAL type back into service, they were decommisoned in the 1990s and they are from 1951. So.. :P

It bears a bit of a resemblance to the MEKO 130 class.
