The agreement includes the delivery of Terma’s C-Guard system, which significantly enhances the frigate’s survivability. The system features advanced Anti-Aircraft Warfare (AAW) and Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) modules, designed to protect the ship against a wide range of incoming threats.
This contract reflects a strong alliance between Northern European defense partners. The cooperation between Terma and Damen Naval brings together decades of expertise and proven technology to support the PES frigate program. It also strengthens their position as trusted partners for Colombia and the broader Latin American region.
“We are pleased to integrate Terma’s advanced C-Guard system into the PES frigate,” said Jasper Oreel, Project Director at Damen Naval. “Its proven performance and modular configuration are a strong match for the mission versatility of the SIGMA 10514 platform. We look forward to successful project execution and continued cooperation with Terma.”
“We are proud of the relationship and trust received by Damen Naval, and we welcome the opportunity to work even closer, not only with Damen Naval but also the Colombian Navy,” said Martin T Jentsch, Sales Director, Naval Sales at Terma. “With the selection of Terma’s C-Guard decoy system, this platform has opted for a future-proof round agnostics and automatic countermeasure system, with more than 150 systems in operation.”
The PES frigate is scheduled for delivery to the Colombian Navy in 2030.
