Damen Shipyards Galati has launched the second 2,000-tonne corvette ordered from the company by the Pakistan Ministry of Defence.
The multi-purpose warship utilises the same hull design as that of Damen's 90-metre offshore patrol vessel (OPV) series.
The corvette will be used to carry out maritime security patrols in the Indian Ocean region.
