Project history: NUMC = Nuove Unita Minori Combattenti (New Minor Combatant Unit). The four were provisionally ordered in 1998, contract confirmed in 1999. Are used for economic exclusion zone patrol. The hull and superstructure are shaped to reduce radar reflection. The boat pockets recessed into the superstructure amidships are covered by Faraday-shield mesh to eliminate radar returns, and exhaust cooling has been fitted. The helicopter hangar is telescoping. Fin stabilizers are fitted, and the underwater portion of the hull has a pronounced bulbous bow form. Comandante Foscari employs a GRP superstructure, lower mast, and helicopter hangar delivered by Intermarine; incorporating layers of Kevlar and GRP ballistic protection around the bridge and carbon fiber to shield against electromagnetic interference, the new structure weighs 60% less than the steel structures in the earlier three. Also she carries a 76mm Oto-Melara Super Rapid gun in a faceted gunhouse.
Modernizations: 2011, all: + Janus-N e/o detector
Naval service: No significant events.
