Construction has begun on a new Swedish signals intelligence vessel for the Swedish Navy at Nauta Shiprepair Yard.

The steel cutting for the ship took place in March 2018.

Before the ship is delivered to the Swedish Navy, it will undergo sea trials and installation of equipment with Saab Kockums in Karlskrona.

The new vessel will be 74 metres long with a displacement of 2,200 tonnes.
