by Nicholas Fiorenza
The Bundesamt für Ausrüstung, Informationstechnik, und Nutzung der Bundeswehr (BAAINBw), Germany’s Federal Office for Bundeswehr Equipment, Information Technology and In-Service Support, received the F125 frigate Sachsen-Anhalt from Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) in Wilhelmshaven on 30 March, the shipyard and BAAINBw announced later the same day.
The ship is the third of four F125 frigates being built by the Arbeitsgemeinschaft (ARGE) F125 working group: a consortium between TKMS and Lürssen Shipyard.
The last F125 frigate, Rheinland-Pfalz, is to be handed over to the BAAINBw later this year, TKMS said in a press release on 30 March.
