he F-100 frigate is a multi-purpose ship with the following capabilities:

  • Medium-size oceanic escort.
  • Command and control ship in conflict scenarios, capable of operating with allied fleets, and providing cover to expeditionary forces.
  • Capable of operating in coastal and blue waters depending on the conflict situation.
  • High anti-air capability.

The F-100 project entails important challenges; among them:

  • An AEGIS Combat System around the SPY-1D radar which, up to now, was used only in larger combatants such as destroyers and cruisers.
  • Integrate national weapons and sensors into the AEGIS System.
  • Other specific developments like the Navigational Data distribution (DIANA) or the Platform Control Integrated System.

Our home base is Ferrol (Corunna), an 18th century compound but refurbished and updated to be able to provide logistic support to 21st century units.

The AEGIS Combat System, with its SPY-1D radar, permits threat detection in difficult environmental conditions characteristic of coastal waters, providing the necessary fire power to counteract them. The ship design reduces her electromagnetic, infrared and acoustic signatures. The ship has an embarked helicopter (LAMPS Mk-III) with modern sensors and weapons that can detect and attack surface and submarine ships when the ship’s weapons are out of reach.
