  • PRESS RELEASE Paris, 25Th JUNE 2019
    PRESS RELEASE Paris, 25th JUNE 2019 Naval Group welcomes the Minister for the Armed Forces Florence Parly to its Lorient shipyard to celebrate the end of construction of the FREMM frigate Normandie. Naval Group is extremely honored to host the French Minister for the Armed Forces, Florence Parly. This celebration marks not only the end of work on the six multi-mission frigates, but also the beginning of the manufacturing of the FREMM frigates with reinforced air defence capabilities and of the Defence and Intervention Frigate (FDI), the first fully digital warships. Hervé Guillou, CEO of Naval Group, and Admiral Christophe Prazuck, Chief of Staff of the French Navy, hosted the Minister for the Armed Forces on board the Normandie frigate for a visit. This warship was delivered in a record time of 40 months, the shortest completion time of the whole multi-mission frigates program. Florence Parly and Hervé Guillou had the opportunity to discuss the ongoing and future surface ships programs built in Lorient: FREMM, FDI and aircraft carriers. Hervé Guillou claimed: “We are proud to meet the expectations set by the Millitary Programming Law. Today, with the completion of the FREMM Normandie, Naval Group has fulfilled its commitment. This industrial and technical success, which represents more than 2.5 millions working hours, encourages us to keep on completing our mission in service of our national and international clients. This project shows once again the firm’s capacity to respect its engagements in terms of costs, deadlines and performance”. Industrial excellence The Normandie is the sixth French multi-mission FREMM frigate.

The French Defense Attaché Office has drafted it in accordance with open publications. The French Armed Forces are heavily deployed both at home and overseas. On the security front, the terrorist threat is still assessed as high in France and operation “Sentinelle” (Guardian) is still going on. Overseas, the combat units are extremely active against a determined enemy and the French soldiers are constantly adapting their courses of action and their layout plans to the threat. Impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, the French Armed Forces have resumed their day-to-day activities and operations under the sign of transformation and modernization.

  • Choosing Australia's Next Frigate
    STRATEGIC STRATEGIC INSIGHTS The next big grey thing – choosing Australia’s future frigate 131 Andrew Davies, Michael Shoebridge and James Mugg Introduction The SEA 5000 Future Frigate program has three separate broad objectives. The first is to replace the Anzac-class frigates from the mid-2020s, providing the RAN with a new class of warship with the desired capabilities. The second is industrial: faced with a steady loss of shipyard jobs over the past few years, the Australian Government wants work at the ASC Shipyard in South Australia to begin early in the 2020s. The third objective is to set up a continuous shipbuilding program that will continue to deliver locally built vessels in perpetuity, with an eye to being able to export systems, components or perhaps even warships in the future. There’s a tension between the first two objectives. The selection of a hull design hasn’t yet been made, although a decision is due in the near future. But it won’t be a matter of getting straight to work on the build—or at least it shouldn’t be. A large body of historical project performance data shows that beginning construction before the detailed design The Australian white ensign flying on HMAS Parramatta. © Image courtesy Australian Department of Defence May 2018 2 The next big grey thing – choosing Australia’s future frigate is largely locked down can result in costly and time-consuming problems down the track. And that includes the production engineering (or ‘productionising’, if we must)—the translation of a design into shipyard practices and processes, which is a complex discipline in its own right.
