INTRODUCTION
Global insecurity and a growing number of potential flashpoints highlights the
necessity for strong naval capabilities. Just over 1,000 (1,081) Surface Warships
larger than OPVs are currently included in the world’s naval fleets and these
are operated by 66 countries. These platforms provide vital deterrence, power
projection, maritime security, sea control and combat support capabilities.
There are currently 17 Aircraft Carriers in operation globally, with another five
being built; four countries – China, India, the UK and the U.S. - have aircraft
carriers under construction, with a forecast 10 year market value of $15 billion.
78 Large Amphibious Vessels are in service, with a further 16 being built and
ten more planned; large amphibious vessel procurement programmes are under
way in nine countries; Algeria, China, India, Italy, the Republic of Korea Korea,
Peru, Qatar, Turkey and the U.S. The market is forecast at $22 billion over the
next decade.
Cruisers are only operated by Russia (4+1) and the U.S. (22).
Destroyers - 183 Destroyers are in operation worldwide, with a further 44 being

built for Australia, China, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea Korea. U.S. plans
suggest a further 45. The estimated value of the market for Destroyers over the
next ten years is $44.5 billion.
Frigates - 457 Frigates are operated worldwide, with 107 more being procured
and a further 109 planned/required in a total of 24 countries, with a ten year
market value of $64.9 Billion. The largest procurement programme, in terms
of numbers being built, is in Russia (19). Regionally, 48.6% of the frigates being
procured are in Europe (including Russia), with 20.6% in Asia-Pacific.
Corvettes - 319 Corvettes are operational with 80 more to be procured and plans
for a further 27 in a total of 19 countries. Russia (25) has the largest current
procurement programme, with the Philippines (12) and India (eight) having
the largest future plans and requirements. The value of current procurement
programmes is forecast at $3.56 billion, while the market for future plans and
requirements is valued at $1.2 Billion.
The total market for Surface Warships over the next ten years is forecast at
$155.16 billion, which represents a 6.1% decrease in the last year.
COUNTRY-BY-COUNTRY
PROGRAMMES AND
REQUIREMENTS
PROGRAMMES AND REQUIREMENTS

Australia
The first of the three 7,000-tonne Hobart-class AWDs has been commissioned. The final vessel commissions in 2020.
The white paper announced that the RAN would receive nine future frigates optimised for anti-submarine warfare
from the late 2020s. They will replace the existing Anzac class and will be in Project SEA 5000. The government
selected BAE Systems as the preferred bidder, with its Type 26 Frigate. IOC is expected in 2027-30.
Bangladesh
Two Chinese-built Shadhinota-class guided-missile corvettes were commissioned in March 2016. Two more are to be
delivered in 2019 (Dates unknown).
Belgium/Netherlands
Belgium is working with the Netherlands to consider the replacement of both countries’ Karel Doorman (M)-class
frigates. A letter of intent was signed in November 2016 for 2 ASW frigates (plus ASuW capability).
Brazil
The Brazilian Navy has several long-term naval requirements that, by 2030, include a new 40,000 ton aircraft carrier,
four 20,000-ton amphibious assault vessels (helicopter carriers), 21 escort ships and five 13,000-ton replenishment
ships.
New frigates are planned to replace both the Niteroi and Broadsword classes. Up to 5 are planned in the PROSUPER
programme, which is delayed through a lack of funds. This programme may now follow the Tamandare class corvette
programme – an RFP was issued in late 2017, with construction planned to commence in 2020.
Bulgaria
A new corvette programme – the Armed Patrol Ship – was approved by the government in 2016. A new tender was
expected in 2018. The project provides for the first patrol ship to be launched into water by the end of 2023 and the
second one by the end of 2024. The Ministry of Defence has requested price offers for this project from a total of eight
companies.
Canada
The preferred bidder offering of the Type 26 frigate has been selected for the Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC)
programme. Lockheed Martin Canada and BAE Systems will build the ships.
China
In raw numbers, China now has the largest naval fleet in the world. The rampant increase in destroyers, frigates and
submarines has tipped the strategic balance in the Pacific. The PLA navy now has around 400 warships and
submarines, according to Western naval analysts. By 2030, the Chinese navy could have more than 530 warships and
submarines, according to a projection in a 2016 U.S. Naval War College study. In 2019, pictures were released of the
PLAN’s new amphibious assault ship and its fixed wing aircraft carriers.
Chile
The Chilean Navy has aspirations to replace one Type 22 and two Type-L frigates from c.2025. Additional Type 23s are
possible from the UK.
There are plans to acquire corvettes or light frigates to replace fast missile boats.
Colombia
4-6 frigates are planned by 2027 to replace the Almirante Padillas.
2 LSDs of 7,500 tonnes approximately are planned.
France
The French Navy is implementing the Horizon Marine 2025 plan. A future carrier to replace the Charles de Gaulle is
planned in the 2040s. Studies have commenced. 18 frigates were included in future requirements by the Chief of Naval
Staff in July 2017.
8 ships are due in the FREMM (multi-mission frigate) class – a second generation stealth frigate, of which 3 have been
delivered.
The French Navy is planning to procure up to five 4,250 ton Frégate de Taille Intermédiare (FTIs)
– dubbed the “Montcalm” class – to replace the “La Fayette” class [general-purpose] frigates from 2023 onwards.
Germany
The first Baden-Wũrttemberg class frigate was planned to commission at the end of 2016, but IOC is now planned in
2019.
The German Navy is set to receive five new Braunschweig-class corvettes from a consortium of domestic shipyards in
a deal set to exceed $2 billion, it was announced in September 2017.
The Bundestag approved funds for the five new ships in June, following commissioning of the initial five
Braunschweig class vessels between 2008 and 2013. The new ships are set to be delivered to the German Navy by 2025.
6 MKS 180 Corvettes in 2 batches (4 +2) will replace the Bremen class. A contract award has been delayed to 2019 at the
earliest. The first vessel is planned to enter service in 2026, with subsequent vessels joining at one year intervals.
Greece
Priorities include the procurement of FREMM frigates, but no funding is yet available and no new vessels are expected
until the mid-2020s.
India
A total of 7 Project 15A guided-missile destroyers are currently planned by 2021.
Formerly known as the Air Defence Ship, the first Vikrant class aircraft carrier (Project 71) was launched in August

Meanwhile, plans to acquire a Joint Multi-Mission Ship to replace the navy’s landing-platform docks appear to be
firmer.

In November 2016 the MoD announced that, ‘subject to final contract negotiations’, the first steel would be cut for the
new Type-26 vessel in summer 2017 and it was in July 2017.
The recent defence review delayed Type 26 introduction to service until the mid-2020s and announced that a class
of smaller, cheaper light general-purpose frigates would sustain hull numbers as Type 23 frigates retire, called the
General Purpose Frigate (GPFF) or Type 31.
The 5 oldest Type 23s are now to be replaced by the new GPFF.
The 2023 out-of-service ate (OSD) of HMS Argyll – the oldest of the general-purpose-roled Type 23s – is emerging as a
critical driver for the GPFF procurement programme.
An Engine upgrade programme for the 6 Daring Class destroyers will run from 2019-2024.

commissioned on the 15th October 2016. The next of class was commissioned in 2019.
The Littoral Combat Ship joined the fleet in 2016, but the total programme numbers have been capped at 32, rather
than 52. 10 vessels have so far been delivered.
The first America class LHA was commissioned in October 2014, with the next due to commission in 2019. No further

The LPD 30 will commence low-rate replacement of the Whidbey Class LSDs. The first is due in FY20.
The U.S. Navy is looking for inputs from industry on a new multi-mission guided-missile frigate adapted from existing ship
designs, a major departure from its modular littoral combat ship, according to a request for information released in 2017.
Labeling the ship the FFG(X), the ship will be expected to keep up with the full carrier strike group and be able to
operate independently in high-end threat environments.
In order to get the ship to the fleet as fast as possible, the U.S. Navy wants builders to adapt from existing designs, the
RFI stated.
Vietnam
12 Russian-designed TARANTUL V missile corvettes are being procured, with 8 delivered so far. Negotiations
