"Russia looks to Dutch yard for amphibious ships Menno Steketee Correspondent Amsterdam

Russia has approached Damen Schelde Naval Shipbuilding about the potential acquisition of four amphibious transport ships, the Dutch company's director has revealed.

Hein van Ameijden said that Moscow has expressed interest in procuring a design similar to the landing platform dock (LPD) HrMs Johan de Witt, which was commissioned into the Royal Netherlands Navy (RNLN) in November 2007.

A lead ship for the Russian Federation Navy would be built by Damen, presumably at the Galati yard in Romania, and fitted out at Flushing in the Netherlands. The three follow-on units would be built in Russia.

Damen is one of two Western European shipbuilders believed to have been approached in recent weeks by Russian authorities probing the possibility of buying amphibious warfare ships.

According to media reports at the end of August, the Chief of the Russian General Staff, General Nikolai Makarov, has been involved in discussions with French company DCNS over its Mistral-class amphibious assault ship. When approached by Jane's, however, DCNS declined to comment."

A class of 2 ships ?

There is a gap of 10 years between the "Johan de Witt" and the "Rotterdam". Moreover the Johan the Witt is much heavier and larger than the Rotterdam, build for different purposes (i.e. commanding a large amphibious task force) and in many respects it's a new design. So, referring to the Johan de Witt as belonging tot the Rotterdam class would be something as claiming that the frigate Leander is part of the Rothesay class.

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
