Features of Dutch naval shipbuilding
• The Netherlands is self-sufficient in naval shipbuilding
• Most naval weaponry is imported
• a long-standing naval/maritime cluster the RNLN at the centre as a spider in the web
• RNLN is leader firm
• RNLN itself designs its new ships
• RNLN itself designs Sensor, Weapon and Control Systems (SEWACO)
• Much of Dutch expertise on naval technology is located within the Navy’s design office.
• Mutual trust is more important than competition

• De Schelde - frigates
• RDM - submarines
• Van der Giessen de Noord - minesweepers & minehunters
• [Wilton Fijenoord - 2 frigates and 4 submarines]
• [ NSM - (until the mid-1960s) 3 frigates]

Dutch naval exports in the pastWeak export position for new Dutch naval ships • political factors
– foreign governments support exports of own naval yards – no export licenses (Taiwan, South Africa)
• RNLN’s as launch customer is essential, but RNLN’s requirements: advanced & expensive
• Small export successes in 1980s: Greece, Indonesia, Taiwan
More successful in exporting second hand warships • In the past: Peru and Indonesia• Recently frigates to Belgium, Portugal, Chile
minehunters to Latvia
Thales Netherlands successful: radar and fire control equipmentnew or in refitting programs

Dutch naval shipyards after 2000
Damen Schelde Shipyards • Virtually the only shipyard left, surface vessels• Different management and strategy• SIGMA-design: modular design of corvettes• Successful in exports: FAC, corvettes, patrol vessels
(Indonesia, Marocco)• Co-operation with and take-over of foreign yards
(e.g., Galati yard in Romania)
Re-entering of IHC Merwede? • Design and Construction of ATS, LPD and AOR• Multi Role Ship for New Zealand Navy (2006)• Still little experience
