@@theroadbackhome2022 Thats correct originaly there where 8 of these M-Frigates build for the dutch navy 2 went to belgium 2 to chille and 2 to portugal 2 remained here the van amstel wich you see n the video and the van speijk wich is inactive .
Impressed with the Baltic Countries, and their Seamanship is Second to None. Killer Putin should not, should never consider pizzing off the Baltic Countriesw, not after his Pathetic Naval showing in the Black Sea. Considering the Ultra-Sick-State of Washington DC many of us have Talked of Emigrating to Baltic Countries, VERY IMPRESSED WITH THEIR LEADERSHIP. PEOPLE, and principles of living and self protection.
The Dutch have always been a strong naval power. Back in the 1700s they even challenged the British navy. Today most countries in the area still have a small yet respectable fleet for self-defense.
Great Videos
Thanks, I am glad that you like them.
The boxes with the exhaust pipes fixed to the Hangar are the VLS launchers for the Sea Sparrow SAM.
Nice video!!

That makes sense. I heard that the Dutch also sold a couple of these frigates to Chile and Portugal.
