Damen Shipyard in Galați is set to build amphibious transport ships for the Netherlands and frigates for Belgium and the Netherlands, but Romania is not among the buyers. The shipyard has a strong portfolio with over 30 military vessels for NATO countries. Upcoming projects include four amphibious ships and six frigates, with production starting in 2027. Despite the shipyard's capabilities, Romania has not contracted Damen for military vessels, raising concerns about the modernization of its naval forces. The situation highlights ongoing delays in Romania's military fleet upgrades.
