KRI Hasanuddin

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The Indonesian navy has taken delivery of the second of four corvettes ordered from the Netherlands, the navy said here Wednesday.
The 1,600 tonne Sigma-class corvette, which was named the KRI Hasanuddin-366, arrived from its shipyard in the Netherlands at Jakarta's Tanjung Priok port on Tuesday and will join the navy's Western Fleet as a patrol ship, fleet spokesman Major Donny said.
Four of the missile-equipped ships were ordered from the Schelde naval shipyard in the Netherlands in January 2004. The first ship arrived in August last year while the third and fourth ships are expected to arrive between late 2008 and mid 2009, Donny was quoted as saying by AFP.
The Indonesian navy, which operates across a country made up of more than 17,000 islands, has a fleet of 130 ships and around 170,000 personnel. (*) END
