Every fourth vessel will be made in Ukraine. mvs.gov.ua France will manufacture and deliver by 2023 a total of 20 modern patrol boats, as reported by the press service of the Ministry of the Interior.
The 32m-long boats are designed to protect the state border on water, carry out surveillance and monitoring and control missions, search and rescue and countersabotage operations. According to Interior Minister Arsen Avakov, every fourth boat will be made in Ukraine.
Tentative plans say the capacities will be hosted at one of the Mykolayiv-based shipyards. The agreement provides for Ukrainian additional equipment to be installed on the vessels.
The project costs EUR 136 million. Immediately, 15% of the total amount will be taken from the state budget and another 85% – through a special loan from the French Treasury at minimal rate.
The project also includes boat servicing, as well as training of 240 crew and 120 technical personnel.
Ukraine will be able to get the first boat from the batch as early as 2021. As UNIAN reported earlier, the Russian Navy began military exercises in the Black Sea, in which more than ten naval vessels take part, as well as aviation.

‘Every fourth vessel will be made in Ukraine.’
Bah!
So 75% will be equipped with a white flag?
They will only have reverse gears on them.
Baaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Hahahaha………
The guns will be loaded with vegetables ;))
NATO should boot the Frogs out, and see how they go it alone with their EU army.
EU army? No thanks. Except for Scandinavia, the Baltics, Benelux and Portugal nobody has US planes or equipment. They will fail on their own eurotrash technology without the enemy’s involvement.
At least the broomstick manufacturers will be happy. LMAO
They need NATO in case the migrants take over…
btw, did you know how to make a © sign? You can hold ctrl + Alt and C then copy and paste from Word
On my machine it’s ctrl+C to copy and then ctrl+V to paste.
No mate, I’m talking about making the © sign
I do that on my smartphone, since i post all articles via the app. But ty for the hint. 👍
Hey Mike, I’m having trouble posting pics in the comments section, do you post them on your computer too or just your phone?
I do it on my phone. I upload them into the Disqus comment section, but don’t post, then i copy/paste the link into the WP comment section and post. 🎸
Thanks. I’ve been doing the same except I wasn’t getting the link, the pic just opens instead…
Try it in response to somebody in your Disqus inbox, click reply and upload the pic (don’t click the post button), then copy/paste. 😉
I didn’t know that method. The only method I knew was holding down the alt key, and typing 0169.
Wow, didn’t know that. That sounds like Fortran 77 or something, lol
Typing (c) is much easier to remember. LMAO
Hard for you after 2 pots of coffee? ;))
You can also copy and paste it from the character map on a PC.
Just posted the same. LMAO!
I have all symbols in a Word file on my pc’s desktop. I just open and copy/paste the desired symbol. Your method is better for sober people. LMAO!
WTF?
Anyway, I’m sure the Boats will be fine.
