The Brazilian Navy will hold the launching and christening ceremony of the frigate Cunha Moreira (F202) this Thursday in Itajaí. The vessel is the third of four ships being built under the Tamandaré-class frigate program, one of Brazil’s largest naval shipbuilding programs.

Built in Brazil by the Águas Azuis Consortium, the program combines technology transfer, local industrial development and naval modernization. Once commissioned, the frigate will be capable of anti-air, anti-submarine and anti-surface warfare operations, strengthening Brazil’s maritime defense capabilities.
