SIGMA 10513 Tarik Ben Ziad Frigate - Royal Moroccan Navy

Also known as Frégates Multi-Missions Marocaines (FMMM) - Damen Schelde Naval Shipbuilding

Description

On Friday 23 December 2011, HM King Mohammed VI, Supreme Commander and Chief of Staff of the Royal Armed Forces, officially commissioned the SIGMA 10513 Frigate ‘Tarik Ben Ziyad’ for the Moroccan Royal Navy. The 105 meter long SIGMA Frigate, built by Damen Schelde Naval Shipbuilding, was transferred to the Moroccan Royal Navy in September 2011.

Morocco ordered two SIGMA 9813 and one larger SIGMA 10514 from DAMEN in February 2008. The three SIGMA-class frigates for the Royal Moroccan Navy have been designed according to Schelde Naval Shipbuilding's revolutionary SIGMA-approach (Ship Integrated Geometrical Modularity Approach) and are a further development of the SIGMA-corvettes for the Indonesian Navy. The SIGMA approach applies modularity in many areas.

The Royal Moroccan Navy SIGMA Class frigates are equipped to conduct the traditional naval tasks as well as maritime security operations. The vessels are also suited to support humanitarian aid operations.
