The Navy took supply of the vessel from German shipbuilder, thyssenkrupp Marine Programs (TKMS) on Nov. 11. TKMS is the prime contractor to construct 4 next-generation SA’AR-6 class missile corvettes for the Israeli Navy.

The Sa’ar 6 vessels are being constructed in Germany in a joint challenge by German Naval Yards Holdings (GNYH) and TKMS beneath a contract signed in Could 2015. Building price is estimated at NIS 1.Eight billion ($480 million) with Israel paying two-thirds of the price and the German Authorities subsidizing the remaining one-third, as with the Dolphin-class submarines.

The Sa’ar-6 class ships’ design is loosely based mostly on the German Navy’s Ok130 Braunschweig-class corvettes, however with engineering adjustments to render the baseline platform extra militarily strong. The vessels have the stealthy design of a low-signature missile corvette with tailored options and quite a few new applied sciences onboard.

The Sa’ar 6-class corvettes have a size of 90 m, a beam of 13 m and a full-load displacement of round 1,900 tons. They’ve a hangar area and a flight deck capable of accommodate a medium-class SH-60-type helicopter.

They’re outfitted with IAI Elta EL/M-2248 MF-STAR energetic electronically scanned array (AESA) radar which is able to monitoring each air and floor targets and offering fireplace management steerage. MF-STAR is an acronym of Multi-Operate Surveillance, Observe And Steerage Radar.

One of many roles of the vessels can be to guard pure fuel platforms within the Mediterranean sea towards attainable sea-borne or rocket threats.

After the completion of the design part, the development part began with the steel cutting ceremony of the first-of-class (INS Magen) in February 2018. Solely 15 months after the primary metal reduce, the ship was undocked, fulfilling its very bold schedule. The primary Sa’ar 6-class corvette was formally named INS Magen throughout a ceremony in Kiel, Germany on Could 23, 2019.

The remaining three ships – INS Oz, INS Atzmaut and INS Nitzahon – are deliberate for supply subsequently in intervals of some months.
