The R.E. Martadinata class of guided-missile frigates of the Indonesian Navy are SIGMA 10514 types of the Netherlands-designed Sigma family of modular naval vessels, named after Indonesian Admiral Raden Eddy Martadinata. The frigates are each built from six modules or sections, four built at the PT PAL shipyard at Surabaya, the other two at Damen Schelde Naval Shipbuilding in the Netherlands.[2]

History

On June 6, 2012, the Indonesian Ministry of Defense represented by Major General Ediwan Prabowo officially signed a procurement contract with DSNS represented by Evert van den Broek to build the first Sigma 10514 frigate for the Indonesian Navy with a value of $220 million. The procurement of this ship aims to strengthen the Indonesian Navy's arsenal and provide a deterrent effect on any party who intends to disrupt Indonesia's sovereignty and territorial integrity. The Transfer of Technology (ToT) scheme was applied during the construction of this ship to PT PAL Indonesia.[8]

KRI Raden Eddy Martadinata (331), lead ship of her class, was commissioned on 7 April 2017 at Tanjung Priok.[9] The second ship, KRI I Gusti Ngurah Rai (332), was launched in September 2016. I Gusti Ngurah Rai was delivered on 30 October 2017. On 2 November 2017, it was reported that there was still work that needed to be completed in both Indonesia and the Netherlands before the ship will be ready for service. There will also be an estimated three-month training period for her crew as well.[10] The second frigate was commissioned on 10 January 2018.
