What does the panel think of the German GMF-120 proposal for Denmark?
Short answerIt is an interesting Baltic combatant, but its compact form looks less suitable for Denmark's transatlantic and Greenland patrol requirements.
NotesThe GMF-120 proposal looks short and squat in the image being discussed, with a resemblance to earlier German corvettes and frigates. That appearance leads to doubts about its suitability for Denmark's duties beyond the Baltic. Denmark also has to think about transatlantic crossings and the waters around Greenland. The same proposal might suit Swedish Baltic requirements better. This is a judgment from the illustrated design and its apparent proportions, rather than a demonstrated result from seakeeping trials or endurance figures.
