Nice, great anti-air capability, but who’s going to bomb Finland? If the Russkis get frisky again they’ll just walk in and take it!

Strictly speaking as a long retired submarine sailor not acquainted with surface ships, I’d say this is a pretty safe ship - I don’t see how you could fall off in a storm since everything is inside.

Why would the Finnish Nave need ice breakers? Was Al Gore wrong?

"Finland is in the middle of a competition to select a new anti-ship missile to replace its existing Swedish-made RBS-15 Mk IIs and Boeing’s Harpoon is just one potential option. The other contenders are the RBS-15 Mk III+ from Sweden’s Saab Bofors Dynamics, the Naval Strike Missile (NSM) from Norway’s Kongsberg, and latest iteration of the European missile consortium MBDA’s Exocet MM40. "

Finland has selected the Israel Aerospace Industries-developed Gabriel anti-ship missile to replace its current MTO85M system.
