Ships of the class carry vertical launch systems and an embarked helicopter and are designed for escort and anti-submarine duties.

The angular superstructure with surfaces shaped for reduced radar signature shows up well in 1/350. The uniform grey invites panel shading and subtle highlighting of details.
