“Colombian Navy takes delivery of lead ship of new patrol vessel class” –Baird

Baird reports,

The Colombian Navy took delivery of a new offshore patrol vessel (OPV) on Saturday, January 31.

The future ARC 24 de Julio is the lead ship of a new class of OPVs to be built by Colombian shipyard Cotecmar.

It is a pretty typical OPV, a bit larger than a WMEC270:

  • Length: 93 meters (305 ft)
  • Beam: 14 meters (46 ft)
  • Draft: 3.9 meters (12.8 ft)
