Köln (F265) is the sixth ship of the Braunschweig-class corvette of the German Navy.

Developments

Шаблон:Main The K130 Braunschweig class (sometimes Korvette 130) is Germany's newest class of ocean-going corvettes. Five ships have replaced the Шаблон:Sclass of the German Navy.

They feature reduced radar and infrared signatures ("stealth" beyond the Шаблон:Sclasss) and will be equipped with two helicopter UAVs for remote sensing. Recently, the German Navy ordered a first batch of two UMS Skeldar V-200 systems for the use on the Braunschweig-class corvettes.[1] The hangar is too small for standard helicopters, but the pad is large enough for Sea Kings, Lynx, or NH-90s, the helicopters of the German Navy.

The German Navy has ordered the RBS-15 Mk4 in advance, which will be a future development of the Mk3 with increased range —Шаблон:Convert— and a dual seeker for increased resistance to electronic countermeasures.[2] The RBS-15 Mk3 has the capability to engage land targets.[3]

In October 2016 it was announced that a second batch of five more frigates is to be procured from 2022 to 2025.[4] The decision was in response to NATO requirements expecting Germany to provide a total of four corvettes at the highest readiness level for littoral operations by 2018, and with only five corvettes just two can be provided.[5]

In September 2017, the German Navy commissioned the construction of five more corvettes in a consortium of North German shipyards. Lürssen will be the main contractor in the production of the vessels. The contract is worth around 2 billion euros.[6][7] In April 2018, the German government announced the specific arrangements under which the five new K130s would be built.[8][9]

Construction and career

Köln's construction started in February and later laid down on 25 April 2019 by Lürssen-Werft in Bremen.[10] Her forecastle was built by Blohm+Voss and towed to Bremen to be assembled and launched on 20 October 2020.[11][12] She had been expected to be commissioned in 2023. However, in September 2022 it was reported that increasing difficulties in integrating the command and control systems for the Batch 2 ships had resulted in a cost growth of 401 million Euros and at least a two year delay for the completion of Köln.[13]

As of 31 October 2020, she was fitting out at Hamburg.[14] She began initial sea trials in July 2023, though her projected full in service date likely remained 2025.[15]
