Project history

ANZAC (MEKO 200 ANZ) design, built for Australia and New Zealand. New Zealand ships originally were to have had two LM-2500 gas turbines and 31.75kts max speed but the starboard turbine was eliminated to save money. Sue to enhanced fuel supply endurance is considerably greater than on sister-ships in other countries. Option for two additional ships to replace Wellington and Canterbury was abandoned in 1997. Superstructures were built in New Zealand.
