Acquisition costs are kept low, as the starting point is a commercial-off-the-shelf vessel, with space for a range of naval systems designed in. This approach enables navies to adopt a commercial ship with a basic level of replenishment ability and upgrade capability at any time during the vessel’s life. Military features include a helicopter landing area at the stern.
