CONSTRUCTION OF TKMS:passed frigate "Eagle" to Algerian Navy
from 23rd February 2016
The frigate with the tactical identifier "910" was festively decorated in Kiel on Tuesday and now leads the Algerian flag.
Arms exports are economically lucrative for the Federal Republic. Again and again, however, there is criticism of weapons and equipment deliveries in potential crisis regions. The delivery of tanks to the Gulf emirate of Qatar has been heavily criticized for its involvement in the conflict in Yemen.
According to media reports, it should be the first of four frigates of the same type, which is building the shipyard TKMS for Algeria. The construction project is top secret. An official confirmation to the construction and protested on Tuesday passed frigate by the Shipyard TKMS not done.

The second Algerian frigate of the same type with the tactical identifier "911" is already at the pier and is located in the equipment phase.
For armament to anti-ship missiles "Saab Bofort Dynamics RBS 15 MK 3" vertically verschießbare surface to air missiles from "Denel Dynamics", an Oto-Melara main gun and two 27mm Rheinmetall close range cannons count. Also, the carrying aircraft is possible with this frigate.

First of Two German built MEKO A-200 AN Frigate Commissioned with Algerian Navy
The first of two MEKO Frigates built by Germany's ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) in Kiel was officially commissioned on February 23 2016. The vessel nammed Harrad (meaning Detterent) was launched in early December 2014. Algeria ordered two frigates (with an option for two more) in March 2012. It is reported that Harrad Frigate is due to arrive in Oran in Algeria in May 2016.

The deal also included 6 AgustaWestland Super Lynx 300 maritime helicopters.Navy Recognition learned during a visit at a Thales Underwater Systems site last year that three of the Lynx helicopters will be fitted with Compact FLASH dipping sonars. According to various sources, the Lynx will be fitted with MU90 torpedoes and Denel Mokopa air to surface missiles. These helicopters will be dedicated to the MEKO frigates.
The second frigate (hull number 911) was launched in December 2015 and should be commissioned in 2017.

Various types of MEKO 200 frigates have been sold by Blohm + Voss/TKMS since the mid-eighties. Algeria would follow the navies of Australia, New Zealand, Greece, Turkey, South Africa and Portugal who all operate the MEKO 200 family.
The MEKO A-200 AN appears to be based on the South African Navy Valour class (MEKO A-200 SAN). The A-200SAN design received some improvements compared to older MEKO 200 vessels including new signature reduction measures.
Scale model of the MEKO A-200 AN frigate on display on the CMN/Privinvest booth during Euronaval 2014.
According to TKMS, the MEKO A-200 is capable of full 4-dimensional warfare (AAW, ASW and ASuW, BCW) and is also designed for sustained operations across the full spectrum of general missions and tasks: patrol and interdiction, support of special force operations, SAR and humanitarian operations. The MEKO A-200 has greatly reduced radar, IR, acoustic and magnetic signatures:
» The X-Form shell design; extensive bulwark screening of exposed equipment; flush-closing shell doors and RCS-net screening of all shell openings, give the vessel very low radar cross section.
» Without a funnel, and with all combustion engines exhaust horizontally on or below the waterline with active cooling, plus a shell cooling system, this ship has exceptionally low IR signatures.
» The small, light propellers and the aft-sighting of propulsion machinery allowed by CODAG-WARP combined with a forefoot skeg make for exceptionally quiet signatures.
The MEKO A-200 AN will be fitted with 16x anti-ship missiles which is not common for a frigate.
Based on a scale model of the MEKO A-200 AN frigate on display on the CMN/Privinvest booth during Euronaval 2014, the new class of frigate is set be heavily armed:
» 1x Oto Melara 127/64 LW 127mm main gun (possibly with VULCANO ammunition)
» 2x MSI 30mm guns (possibly SEAHAWK A2 model)
» 16x SAAB RBS 15 Mk3 anti-ship missiles
» 32x VLS for Denel Umkhonto-IR surface to air missiles
» 2x MU90 torpedo launchers
» 4x Rheinmetall MASS decoy launchers
» 2x WASS/Finmeccanica MORPHEUS acoustic countermeasures launching systems (on each side of the VLS cells. Navy Recognition originally though these were SAGEM NGDS decoy launchers but a TKMS representative confirmed this actually is a WASS system.)
Based on the model, sensor suite includes:
» SAAB Sea Giraffe AMB 3-D surveillance radar
» Thales UMS4132 Kingklip hull mounted sonar
» SAAB CEROS 200 optronic/fire control radar
It is unclear at this time who will provide the combat management system but it will likely be SAAB's 9LV or Thales' TACTICOS.
Similar to the Valour class, the MEKO A-200 AN seems to be fitted with the unusual CODAG-WARP system (COmbined Diesel And Gas turbine-WAter jet and Refined Propellers) which consists in a water-jet drive, in addition to two propellers.

Algeria is in the process of acquisition of 2 new Il-76MD-90A
The information comes from the Russian business daily Kommersant citing an informed source at the Russian arms export agency and announcing the intention of Algeria to order another this year between 2 Il-76-MD90 the modernized version of the Il-76.
