SPS VICTORIA (F82)

(Redirected from Victoria (F82))


Second ship of six Spanish-built 'frigates' based on the USN Oliver Hazard Perry (FFG-7) design. Laid down on August 16 1983 and Launched on July 23 1986, '''Victoria''' was commissioned in service on November 11 1987. All of these Spanish FFG's have the length of the later Oliver Hazard Perry FFG's, and have a wider beam than the USN design, and therefore able to carry more top weight. Fin stabilizers are fitted.
