Gowind® 2500 corvette becomes a reality

On 17 September, DCNS floated the first Gowind® 2500 corvette out of its assembly hall at the Lorient shipyard just 12 months after construction began. The Elfateh, the first of a series of four Gowind® 2500s for the Egyptian Navy, is scheduled for delivery in 2017. The three sisterships will be built under a technology transfer agreement at the Alexandria Shipyard; work on the first having begun in 2016.
