Visby-class corvette
The Visby-class corvette is a class of stealthy warships used by the Swedish Navy. Designed for various roles, including anti-surface, anti-submarine, and anti-air operations, these vessels feature advanced technology and a low radar profile, making them difficult to detect. The corvettes are equipped with modern weaponry, including missiles and torpedoes, and can operate in coastal and open sea environments.
The first ship of the class, HMS Visby, was commissioned in 2009. The Visby-class is notable for its innovative design, which incorporates composite materials and a unique hull shape to enhance stealth capabilities. These corvettes are part of Sweden's efforts to maintain a modern and versatile naval force.
