OSI to supply NZ frigate upgrade radar
OSI Maritime Systems (OSI) has signed a contract for the supply of a new radar system as part of the Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) Anzac-class Frigate Systems Upgrade (FSU) project, it announced on 25 July.
The value of the contract remains confidential, but an OSI spokesman said the work would be carried out in 2017.
The FSU project is for the upgrade of self-defence, combat and surveillance capabilities of the Anzac-class frigate, two of which are operated by the RNZN and eight by Australia.
The new radars will be replacing the previous X-band radar with Furuno FAR-3000
