The
successful delivery of this warship occurred just nine months after
the delivery of the First Of Class (FOC) in General Purpose version
(Carlo Bergamini) and only two months after the FOC in Anti Submarine
Warfare version (Virginio Fasan). The lessons learnt from the delivery
of both these warships made it possible to ensure the same high level
of quality for the Carlo Margottini as for the previous warships, as
well as delivering four months ahead of the contractual schedule.
The FREMM Margottini is in Anti Submarine Warfare configuration as well
as Fasan.
Main Characteristics:
- Length, overall: 144 m
- Displacement (around): 6,700 t
- Crew + extra Personnel: 145+55
- Propulsion: CODLAG
- Speed: > 27 kts

Such
an accomplishment was possible due to the empowering OCCAR framework,
which gives the necessary flexibility to the relationship between governmental
and industrial stakeholders, and confirms itself to be a winning choice
for the commissioning of complex systems. |
