This ship is a big step forward. Apart from the revolutionary cockpit, the modularity is just amazing. Removable davits, and crane, that impresive hangar, are making this platform extremely versatile. Actually, this ship can be configured in a very short period of time, to any type of mission. The electric propulsion facilitates even MCM ops. This kind of ships are needed for small navies which can't afford to keep too many classes of specialized warships.
I've come to really respect the Italian military. They have a singular vision with regard to their defense and role within NATO. Better yet, they make beautiful ships.
Wow, just wow. This is getting to the Star Trek or Sci-Fi level of a bridge & CIC. I love that the Italians still put up multiple guns too. Awesome design. Very well thought out. I would love to see the Italians make a new Destroyer for us. I am very happy that they are building our Frigates also.
After the entry into service of the new Orizzonte-class destroyers in the Italian Navy in the second half of the 2000s, the Italian Ministry of Defense decided to replace the Luigi Duran De La Penne-class destroyers and commissioned Fincantieri to design a new type of destroyer. we still know very little about this new class. the little information circulating says that they will be between 175/185 meters long, have a displacement of 11/12,000 tons and will carry 2 helicopters between augustawestland aw101 and nh90. these units are expected to enter service in 2030/35, but the war in ukraine has prompted the ministry to accelerate all ongoing programmes. obviously Italy does not have the budget of the United States, so every single cent must be spent in a targeted way, reducing waste to a minimum. but lately france and another unspecified country have shown interest in the ddx program, this will allow development and design costs to be spread across multiple units and could give greater impetus to the entire program.

The 127mm main gun with Vulcano extended range guided ammos is the weapon the class had been designed around. It's practically a 32 RPM, 90km range (120km with the incoming block "C"), missile launcher.

The Italian navy is modern and pretty much complete,being a peninsula stretched in the Mediterranean the navy has to be more than capable to defend it’s shores, the air support is also well equipped and modern!
Not only do the Italians make beautiful ships, they give the systems on their ships awesome names. "Vulcano", "Athena", "Kronos". Apparently those in the Italian Navy are fans of antiquity.
This is a pretty amazing looking warship, it also reminds me of the Japan Maritime Self Defence Force's modern Akizuki class destroyer. I hope there are plenty more to come. Take care, and all the best.
the plan provides for the construction of 16 units for the Italian navy, but at the moment only 7 have been financed. divided into 2 Light: light version, suitable for coastal patrolling and combating crime at sea, 3 Light+: medium version, suitable for both coastal patrol and support and combat, 2 Full: heavy version, suitable for front line combat. the displacement varies from 4600 tons of the Light version (the one featured in this video and a light variant) to 6300 tons in Full configuration. all the variants have been designed to be brought to the full version, without making structural changes and in a short time. substantially all the units are already prepared from birth. the war in ukraine prompted the italian ministry of defense to evaluate the possibility of bringing all units to the full version. the p430 Paolo Thaon di Revel and the p431 Francesco Morosini are already in service and are both light. the p432 Raimondo Montecuccoli, will be delivered to the navy in June, and is a light+ version, the p434 Giovanni delle Bande Nere, is carrying out sea trials and will be delivered in 2024, this one and already in full configuration. also in 2024 the p433 Marcantonio Colonna will be delivered, which is in the light+ version. the other 2 have not yet been launched and in the original plans the p435 Ruggiero di Lauria is a light+ variant, while the p436 Domenico Millelire is a full version. but it seems that the p435 hull will also be launched in a full version. both units will be delivered in 2026

Very advanced and futuristic ship. I think this ship is much better than other offshore patrol vessel and Frigate. It will be attract South East Asian countries which are Singapore, Indonesia, and Philippine. I’m surprised combined bridge, CIC and communication room at same floor. Is Italian Navy decided clear the damage control in this concept? If that’s all clear very impressed.
Hi sir. In modern warships the CIC are however placed on the same island as the bridge, behind, below or above the bridge (it depends), usually close to the main Radar. Today's ships are not primarily designed to withstand ASuW missile hits(or other generic Cruise missiles), but have evolved their systems to avoid being hit. In case of successful penetration of a warhead even near the bridge/CIC it would be fatal (both for instruments and for the Staff), especially if the missile contains a heavy warhead or if it's a hypersonic missile.
@@CriscCiaddu Thank you your comment. I understand why even during war, main purpose of OPV is monitoring the sea territory of own coastal areas. OPV does not appear the battle field. So the operation of centralized deployment will be efficient and prioritize. Countries that has naval battle experiences in world war 2 had knowledge that important facilities distributed deployment have been done to damage control.
@@paultanton6721 Sorry my mistake, the FREMM chosen by US Navy was the Bergamini class called "Alpino" F 594 with ASW capability, not Lupo. You're right on that.
It's important to consider that finally the americans have addressed their need of more sophisticated ships in ASW role. Their carriers are always in danger from submarines. Trials have shown that modern day submarines can effectively sink the US carriers and that is a bad news for the whole NATO. As partners we share security and defendive roles while escorting their carriers here in Europe and now we have shared such capabilities with them kn order to minimize the risks in a real situation. This will greatly benefit our common capabilities of forcing any threat to reconsider the use of force against our nations and allies. 🇮🇹🇺🇲 Togheter we are strong. 😎👍
Xavier, at the 5:26 mark, after the commander finished explaining his station, you and I said 'Wow' at the same time! What a ship! But what is the deal with that odd bow at the waterline?
Ive seen it described as a 'Sawtooth Bow',im no Naval Architect but it is a way of having a greater speed by manipulating the Ship's speed to length ratio.
Thank you for the visit of the Francesco Morisini Warship to Indonesia several months ago. And as a result, the Indonesian Ministry of Defense has signed a contract with the Italian Navy to purchase 2 PPA warships, namely: Marcantonio Colonna (P 433) and Ruggiero di Lauria (P 435) and delivery of phase I will be carried out in October 2024 to Indonesia
very beautiful ship. The model of the ship shows a VLS in front of the bridge, but the ship doesn't seem to be equipped with it at the moment. is this an option?
As explained from 1:03, the PPA can have various configurations. The one in the video is in Light configuration, but can be refitted at any time to become a Light+ or Full configuration, adding VLS and other systems. The next PPAs that will be delivered to the Italian Navy will be in Full version, and it seems that all the PPAs currently in Light configuration will be soon converted into Full ones.
The funny thing is that this class of ship has more power and displacement than a traditional frigate, in fact when fully equipped it has the offensive power of a destroyer, including the capacity for coastal bombardment, but the Navy had to call it a "Patrol Vessel" because the pacifists in parliament would have been angry if Italy had too many front line ships in its fleet.
It's called PPA because this class of ships has to replace four Soldati-class frigates and eight Minerva-class corvettes, so it's not going to be a front line ship only, but it has to perform light patrol duties also. And infact only part of the fleet will be of "full" configuration ships. The "light" and "light+" ships have not the same offensive capabilities of full fledged frigates, hence the name.
if you go back in time you will see what we were really able to do...and i'm not referring only to warships and battleships... michelangelo and raphael? or before, green count, red count, white hand count... the rex, one above all. the Italian ships were the most beautiful ships in the world. then if we want to go on warships ... well ... battleship regia Roma and its Littorio class, some of the most beautiful floating masterpieces ever created in the history of the navy.
Vero... però va anche detto che la Littorio riusci ad ingaggiare battaglia una sola volta e fu disastrosa, sparò se non ricordo male 29 colpi mancandone 27... mentre la Roma non prese mai il mare e fu affondata in porto a Civitavecchia da aerosiluranti Inglesi...
@@ClaudeMagicbox no, la Roma è stata affondata dai tedeschi il 9 settembre che l'hanno bombardata con le fritz-x , le prime bombe teleguidate della storia, il mare l'ha preso eccome, tant'è che quando è affondata non era a civitavecchia ma lungo le coste della sardegna (golfo dell'asinara) mentre si stava dirigendo verso le coste dell'algeria, poichè la maddalena era stata appena occupata dai tedeschi ,e quindi trovò la sua tragica fine quel giorno, portandosi con se quasi 1400 uomini.
@@ClaudeMagicbox soltanto nella battaglia di capomatapan, la vittorio veneto sparò 75 colpi, senza colpire nulla e nel corso della guerra spararono centinaia di colpi, andando a segno poche volte e nella maggiorparte delle volte, scheggie dei proietti da 381 colpivano le navi, come nel caso dell'incrociatore da battaglia HMS Kingston, colpito e gravemente danneggiato, oppure l'incrociatore HMS Euryalus e HMS Havock. in cannoni furono progettati sulle specifiche richieste della regia marina, questi dovevano avere una volocità elevatissima alla volata per raggiungere le distanze richieste. risultato? nessuna corazzata riuscì a sparare più lontano della classe littorio e la velocità alla volata le consentiva di sparare bombe da 900kg, che riuscivano a penetrare 550mm di corazza a 25km, lo stesso potere perforante dei pezzi da 406mm americani, nemmeno la corazzata yamato sarebbe riuscita a resistere a una bordata dei 381/50 a quella distanza. per contro, l'enorme velocità del proietto alla volata, generava una spaventosa dispersione delle salve. sostanzialmente, sopra i 25km non prendevi un cazzo nemmeno se sparavi 1000 colpi. la corazzata classe littorio fù cmq all'avanguardia e introdusse soluzioni tecnologiche mai viste prima. la corazzata roma non fù affondata in porto e non furono gli inglesi a farlo. fù affondata in mare aperto dai tedeschi, che per affondarla utilizzarono una nuova arma, la sd 1400 o Fritz-X, la prima bomba radioguidata della storia.

News just out: two PPAs under construction and ready to be launched will be ceded to Indonesia. I read on a site (I think Indonesian) that Indonesia has asked the Italian government to hand over at least two PPAs to it immediately, without having to wait years for construction. It seems that Italy has agreed, since the situation in the South China Sea is deteriorating.
That's a nice looking ship. So, I take it the 25mm gun is for defense against little speedboat type vessels that come in close and swarm? Are there also .50 cal machine mounts for this purpose, like what older frigates had?
it seems that all future Italian units will have this configuration. Leonardo has invested a lot of resources in the development of new systems of the ppa class. these ships will act as an active laboratory for refining and improving this new configuration.
with this configuration we need less personal than a light figade( ppa is more or less a lite frigade for tons ) and has more space to impove firepower or asw capability. fremm /costellation its more or less the same tonns but it cost more than buble in milions dollars witout asw army like mu90 torpedo not included in desing
Wow indeed! This is a really cool looking ship. It must be super convenient to have the Bridge and CIC in the same spot, but also kind of risky since it's all in one spot. But perhaps the small size of the ship makes that point mute since a missile strike would really mess up the ship regardless. Or am I wrong?
I think it is because it is a Patrol ships or Light duty "Frigate" as opposed to say a front line vessel like the Arliegh Burkes or other Destroyers. So they benefit more from the kind of situational awareness and crew movement. I think in a front line warship, they would like build the CIC & Bridge in different areas and armor the CIC (well with anti-spall).

in reality the PLOP is not a reserve CIC, the snow is also designed to provide humanitarian aid. amidships there is the modular section, at this point various types of modules can be installed, such as hospital modules, by installing them a mini hospital on board is created with additional beds and equipment for complex operations. other modules are for example the command and control, which allows the ship to become a management platform for the operations of a naval team, or the modules for special forces, these are installed in the case of missions that require the presence of special forces coalition etc. there are also modules for adding weapon systems. the PLOP, in addition to its ordinary tasks, can manage the added modules, the ship has the ability to intervene immediately in areas where natural disasters occur and can provide electricity and drinking water to a population of 15,000 people. all these things are managed by PLOP. but unlike the other units present in the world today, no PPA system is physically connected to the stations, for example, on the command bridge there is also the classic helmsman, positioned in the classic rearward point. the helmsman gets up from the front pilot's seat, goes to the wheelhouse, enters his credentials and the guidance of the unit passes to the classic wheelhouse. in a war zone, if a ship is hit at any point, it can no longer continue the fight and must retreat to the second or third line of battle. if in extreme cases, the ship is hit and both the bridge and the CIC are destroyed, the PLOP takes command of the ship to retreat, not to continue the fight, but since unlike the other units, the ship's brain is not positioned in the CIC, the ship can still defend itself, because all systems remain operational and can be migrated to the PLOP. this station is not managed by a lieutenant of a frigate or vessel, as usually happens, but is commanded by a corvette captain. this is because in the event of the disaster mentioned above, it is assumed that the entire general staff of the ship is dead present in those points, therefore the entire command hierarchy. this way, the unit will still have a working command line. the electronic system of this class of ships is so complex that 4 people, 2 sitting in the pilot's seat, one sitting in the position on the right (the one that in the video, at minute 2.35 can be glimpsed hidden by a cloth with the writing Leonardo) and the in the other position on the left, they would be able to govern the entire unit, without the help of anyone else. weapon system included.

Darn, Croatia should order few of these instead of those old missile boats. Or maybe few Mogami class frigates. These smaller ships are affordable to even smaller nations.
Quite well-armed for a "light frigate" that displaces just shy of 5000 tons, and the control systems on board represent a very interesting approach to operational management. I wish the USN had designed and built (in appropriate numbers) a ship like this instead of the LCS class. Bellissimo! 🫡

Removable davits, and crane, that impresive hangar, are making this platform extremely versatile. Actually, this ship can be configured in a very short period of time, to any type of mission. The electric propulsion facilitates even MCM ops. This kind of ships are needed for small navies which can't afford to keep too many classes of specialized warships.
The PPA may be what the LCS should have been.

I've come to really respect the Italian military. They have a singular vision with regard to their defense and role within NATO. Better yet, they make beautiful ships.
The displays remind me of an Airbus A350 cockpit. This patrol craft is simply futuristic.
they are now working with the French for a new Container capable to fire missiles!

OMG that's probably the most beautiful ship I've ever seen 💚🤍❤ respect from NZ 🖤🤍

Beautiful & very advanced cockpit
Wow, just wow. This is getting to the Star Trek or Sci-Fi level of a bridge & CIC. I love that the Italians still put up multiple guns too. Awesome design. Very well thought out. I would love to see the Italians make a new Destroyer for us. I am very happy that they are building our Frigates also.
After the entry into service of the new Orizzonte-class destroyers in the Italian Navy in the second half of the 2000s, the Italian Ministry of Defense decided to replace the Luigi Duran De La Penne-class destroyers and commissioned Fincantieri to design a new type of destroyer. we still know very little about this new class. the little information circulating says that they will be between 175/185 meters long, have a displacement of 11/12,000 tons and will carry 2 helicopters between augustawestland aw101 and nh90. these units are expected to enter service in 2030/35, but the war in ukraine has prompted the ministry to accelerate all ongoing programmes. obviously Italy does not have the budget of the United States, so every single cent must be spent in a targeted way, reducing waste to a minimum. but lately france and another unspecified country have shown interest in the ddx program, this will allow development and design costs to be spread across multiple units and could give greater impetus to the entire program.

The Italian navy is modern and pretty much complete,being a peninsula stretched in the Mediterranean the navy has to be more than capable to defend it’s shores, the air support is also well equipped and modern!
the Italian navy for history and for its current fleet is among the first in the world.
Not only do the Italians make beautiful ships, they give the systems on their ships awesome names. "Vulcano", "Athena", "Kronos". Apparently those in the Italian Navy are fans of antiquity.
...You mean proud of history...
Give credit to the Italians for designing a ship’s helm to resemble the steering wheel of a Formula 1 racing car.
for both road cars and formula one cars it was Ferrari who introduced steering with multi-purpose controls
Italia, la gran potencia maritima escondida❤😮
La de España tendría que ser como mínimo igual.
This is a pretty amazing looking warship, it also reminds me of the Japan Maritime Self Defence Force's modern Akizuki class destroyer.
I hope there are plenty more to come.
Take care, and all the best.
the plan provides for the construction of 16 units for the Italian navy, but at the moment only 7 have been financed. divided into 2 Light: light version, suitable for coastal patrolling and combating crime at sea, 3 Light+: medium version, suitable for both coastal patrol and support and combat, 2 Full: heavy version, suitable for front line combat. the displacement varies from 4600 tons of the Light version (the one featured in this video and a light variant) to 6300 tons in Full configuration. all the variants have been designed to be brought to the full version, without making structural changes and in a short time. substantially all the units are already prepared from birth. the war in ukraine prompted the italian ministry of defense to evaluate the possibility of bringing all units to the full version. the p430 Paolo Thaon di Revel and the p431 Francesco Morosini are already in service and are both light. the p432 Raimondo Montecuccoli, will be delivered to the navy in June, and is a light+ version, the p434 Giovanni delle Bande Nere, is carrying out sea trials and will be delivered in 2024, this one and already in full configuration. also in 2024 the p433 Marcantonio Colonna will be delivered, which is in the light+ version. the other 2 have not yet been launched and in the original plans the p435 Ruggiero di Lauria is a light+ variant, while the p436 Domenico Millelire is a full version. but it seems that the p435 hull will also be launched in a full version. both units will be delivered in 2026

Well, this ship is built by Fincantieri, the same company which has created the FREMM/Constellation Class frigates…
Thanks Naval News with more in depth of PPA, it would be interesting to see what USN will borrow from PPA design with FFGX Constellation class.

I’m surprised combined bridge, CIC and communication room at same floor.
Is Italian Navy decided clear the damage control in this concept?
If that’s all clear very impressed.
Hi sir.
In modern warships the CIC are however placed on the same island as the bridge, behind, below or above the bridge (it depends), usually close to the main Radar.
Today's ships are not primarily designed to withstand ASuW missile hits(or other generic Cruise missiles), but have evolved their systems to avoid being hit.
In case of successful penetration of a warhead even near the bridge/CIC it would be fatal (both for instruments and for the Staff), especially if the missile contains a heavy warhead or if it's a hypersonic missile.
@@CriscCiaddu
Thank you your comment.
I understand why even during war, main purpose of OPV is monitoring the sea territory of own coastal areas. OPV does not appear the battle field.
So the operation of centralized deployment will be efficient and prioritize.
Countries that has naval battle experiences in world war 2 had knowledge that important facilities distributed deployment have been done to damage control.
The Italian indeed offered us Indonesia this class of ship, together with FREMM (Bergamini class). We are currently waiting which one will get chosen.

It's important to consider that finally the americans have addressed their need of more sophisticated ships in ASW role. Their carriers are always in danger from submarines.
Trials have shown that modern day submarines can effectively sink the US carriers and that is a bad news for the whole NATO.
As partners we share security and defendive roles while escorting their carriers here in Europe and now we have shared such capabilities with them kn order to minimize the risks in a real situation.
This will greatly benefit our common capabilities of forcing any threat to reconsider the use of force against our nations and allies.

Thank you for the visit of the Francesco Morisini Warship to Indonesia several months ago. And as a result, the Indonesian Ministry of Defense has signed a contract with the Italian Navy to purchase 2 PPA warships, namely: Marcantonio Colonna (P 433) and Ruggiero di Lauria (P 435) and delivery of phase I will be carried out in October 2024 to Indonesia
very beautiful ship.
The model of the ship shows a VLS in front of the bridge, but the ship doesn't seem to be equipped with it at the moment. is this an option?
As explained from 1:03, the PPA can have various configurations. The one in the video is in Light configuration, but can be refitted at any time to become a Light+ or Full configuration, adding VLS and other systems. The next PPAs that will be delivered to the Italian Navy will be in Full version, and it seems that all the PPAs currently in Light configuration will be soon converted into Full ones.

Siamo già daxsemore una superpotenza navale?!😊
The funny thing is that this class of ship has more power and displacement than a traditional frigate, in fact when fully equipped it has the offensive power of a destroyer, including the capacity for coastal bombardment, but the Navy had to call it a "Patrol Vessel" because the pacifists in parliament would have been angry if Italy had too many front line ships in its fleet.
It's called PPA because this class of ships has to replace four Soldati-class frigates and eight Minerva-class corvettes, so it's not going to be a front line ship only, but it has to perform light patrol duties also. And infact only part of the fleet will be of "full" configuration ships. The "light" and "light+" ships have not the same offensive capabilities of full fledged frigates, hence the name.
Maybe one of the most "star trek"-ish military ship around the world 😛
Amazing.
Mamma mia che bella, sembra la plancia della white base 😊
if you go back in time you will see what we were really able to do...and i'm not referring only to warships and battleships... michelangelo and raphael? or before, green count, red count, white hand count... the rex, one above all. the Italian ships were the most beautiful ships in the world. then if we want to go on warships ... well ... battleship regia Roma and its Littorio class, some of the most beautiful floating masterpieces ever created in the history of the navy.
Vero... però va anche detto che la Littorio riusci ad ingaggiare battaglia una sola volta e fu disastrosa, sparò se non ricordo male 29 colpi mancandone 27... mentre la Roma non prese mai il mare e fu affondata in porto a Civitavecchia da aerosiluranti Inglesi...
@@ClaudeMagicbox no, la Roma è stata affondata dai tedeschi il 9 settembre che l'hanno bombardata con le fritz-x , le prime bombe teleguidate della storia, il mare l'ha preso eccome, tant'è che quando è affondata non era a civitavecchia ma lungo le coste della sardegna (golfo dell'asinara) mentre si stava dirigendo verso le coste dell'algeria, poichè la maddalena era stata appena occupata dai tedeschi ,e quindi trovò la sua tragica fine quel giorno, portandosi con se quasi 1400 uomini.
@@ClaudeMagicbox vero, ma lo fece ad una distanza di 32 km.
Nessuna nave riusciva ad ingaggiare a tale distanza.
@@ClaudeMagicbox soltanto nella battaglia di capomatapan, la vittorio veneto sparò 75 colpi, senza colpire nulla e nel corso della guerra spararono centinaia di colpi, andando a segno poche volte e nella maggiorparte delle volte, scheggie dei proietti da 381 colpivano le navi, come nel caso dell'incrociatore da battaglia HMS Kingston, colpito e gravemente danneggiato, oppure l'incrociatore HMS Euryalus e HMS Havock. in cannoni furono progettati sulle specifiche richieste della regia marina, questi dovevano avere una volocità elevatissima alla volata per raggiungere le distanze richieste. risultato? nessuna corazzata riuscì a sparare più lontano della classe littorio e la velocità alla volata le consentiva di sparare bombe da 900kg, che riuscivano a penetrare 550mm di corazza a 25km, lo stesso potere perforante dei pezzi da 406mm americani, nemmeno la corazzata yamato sarebbe riuscita a resistere a una bordata dei 381/50 a quella distanza. per contro, l'enorme velocità del proietto alla volata, generava una spaventosa dispersione delle salve. sostanzialmente, sopra i 25km non prendevi un cazzo nemmeno se sparavi 1000 colpi. la corazzata classe littorio fù cmq all'avanguardia e introdusse soluzioni tecnologiche mai viste prima. la corazzata roma non fù affondata in porto e non furono gli inglesi a farlo. fù affondata in mare aperto dai tedeschi, che per affondarla utilizzarono una nuova arma, la sd 1400 o Fritz-X, la prima bomba radioguidata della storia.
@@lucaiervasi8515 ma vero quando aprono la bocca per dire cazzate la bomba fu sganciata da un he 110 crucco dopo l'armistizio con la roma diretta a sud

Fantastic n brilliant idea , hopefully Indonesia Navy will be operator this vessel. Gracias Don Italiano
The bridge is really unusual. Everyone else is building rather conventional stuff but the Italians went a step further.
Do you think more ships will eventually have bridges/cockpits like this?
it seems that all future Italian units will have this configuration. Leonardo has invested a lot of resources in the development of new systems of the ppa class. these ships will act as an active laboratory for refining and improving this new configuration.
with this configuration we need less personal than a light figade( ppa is more or less a lite frigade for tons ) and has more space to impove firepower or asw capability. fremm /costellation its more or less the same tonns but it cost more than buble in milions dollars witout asw army like mu90 torpedo not included in desing
Wow indeed! This is a really cool looking ship. It must be super convenient to have the Bridge and CIC in the same spot, but also kind of risky since it's all in one spot. But perhaps the small size of the ship makes that point mute since a missile strike would really mess up the ship regardless. Or am I wrong?
I think it is because it is a Patrol ships or Light duty "Frigate" as opposed to say a front line vessel like the Arliegh Burkes or other Destroyers. So they benefit more from the kind of situational awareness and crew movement. I think in a front line warship, they would like build the CIC & Bridge in different areas and armor the CIC (well with anti-spall).

@@lucaiervasi8515 Grazie! Sounds like great thought has been given to survivability and operability. I'm still not sure I agree with the decisions, but I appreciate the new thinking.
A backup war/combat bridge is a great idea, as are generic combat stations. This demonstrates a good understanding of the digital age.
in reality the PLOP is not a reserve CIC, the snow is also designed to provide humanitarian aid. amidships there is the modular section, at this point various types of modules can be installed, such as hospital modules, by installing them a mini hospital on board is created with additional beds and equipment for complex operations. other modules are for example the command and control, which allows the ship to become a management platform for the operations of a naval team, or the modules for special forces, these are installed in the case of missions that require the presence of special forces coalition etc. there are also modules for adding weapon systems. the PLOP, in addition to its ordinary tasks, can manage the added modules, the ship has the ability to intervene immediately in areas where natural disasters occur and can provide electricity and drinking water to a population of 15,000 people. all these things are managed by PLOP. but unlike the other units present in the world today, no PPA system is physically connected to the stations, for example, on the command bridge there is also the classic helmsman, positioned in the classic rearward point. the helmsman gets up from the front pilot's seat, goes to the wheelhouse, enters his credentials and the guidance of the unit passes to the classic wheelhouse. in a war zone, if a ship is hit at any point, it can no longer continue the fight and must retreat to the second or third line of battle. if in extreme cases, the ship is hit and both the bridge and the CIC are destroyed, the PLOP takes command of the ship to retreat, not to continue the fight, but since unlike the other units, the ship's brain is not positioned in the CIC, the ship can still defend itself, because all systems remain operational and can be migrated to the PLOP. this station is not managed by a lieutenant of a frigate or vessel, as usually happens, but is commanded by a corvette captain. this is because in the event of the disaster mentioned above, it is assumed that the entire general staff of the ship is dead present in those points, therefore the entire command hierarchy. this way, the unit will still have a working command line. the electronic system of this class of ships is so complex that 4 people, 2 sitting in the pilot's seat, one sitting in the position on the right (the one that in the video, at minute 2.35 can be glimpsed hidden by a cloth with the writing Leonardo) and the in the other position on the left, they would be able to govern the entire unit, without the help of anyone else. weapon system included.

@@lucaiervasi8515 Very impressive.
🇮🇹🤝🇲🇨
Congratulation italia from contract 2 PPA to Indonesia Army
Alhamdulillah Indonesian navy get it❤
Good ship ❤
Darn, Croatia should order few of these instead of those old missile boats. Or maybe few Mogami class frigates. These smaller ships are affordable to even smaller nations.
agree, and it's even well armed, kronos radar, this would be ideal
9/84 marinaio per sempre...🇮🇹⚓⚓
Buongiorno Italia Deal 2 Unit 🇮🇹🤝🇮🇩.
08:29 is that a JS Kumano? are you at IMDEX 2023?
Quite well-armed for a "light frigate" that displaces just shy of 5000 tons, and the control systems on board represent a very interesting approach to operational management. I wish the USN had designed and built (in appropriate numbers) a ship like this instead of the LCS class. Bellissimo! 🫡
Full ..THEY ARE powerful, monsters, all FULL in future,cause china Russia ,but also FRIENDS...ww3 is next
Light frigate label if for political reasons
with this configuration we need less personal than a light figade( ppa is more or less a lite frigade for tons ) and has more space to impove firepower or asw capability. fremm /costellation its more or less the same tonns but it cost more than buble in milions dollars witout asw army like mu90 torpedo not included in desing
Ieri ho visto il video dove parlava l'ammiraglio dello stato maggiore della marina e ha detto una cosa che non sapevo .
Che le PPA light + e le full sono le uniche navi al mondo che hanno capacita di rilevare i missili balistici
Wow an Racing inspired steering wheel!!!! 😅
The Italian Navy has commissioned 7 of those ships by now (five already built). It had a plan to build 16 of them, but I don't know if it will follow the original plan.
Si era inizialmente previste 16 unità , ma poi nel nuovo programma navale ne fanno 7 in tre versioni 2 light 3 light+ 2 full (fregate di prima linea ) poi nel programma c'era un optional per altre 3 unità ma per adesso si faranno solo 7 , anche perché è subentrato il programma Epc (european Patrol corvette ). Da 8 unità che si sta iniziando la costruzione
What about the huge sail area for main superstructure? How does she handle?
Less windage than an arleigh burke, for sure
