  French and Italian firms to submit joint bid on Canadian Surface Combatant

  Fincantieri of Italy and Naval Group of France have confirmed they will jointly bid the FREMM frigate for the Canadian Surface Combatant program. Bids are due on Nov. 30. Fincantieri General Manager Alberto Maestrini told analysts of the joint bid in a Nov. 10 teleconference. CSC will see the construction of 15 new warships. Maestrini also said the FREMM frigate would be well-suited for another pending program, according to a report in Defense News. “We think it will also match perfectly the requirements put forward by the U.S. Navy in their recent request for design proposals for the Future Frigate Program,” Maestrini told analysts. http://ottawacitizen.com/news/national/defence-watch/french-and-italian-firms-to-submit-joint-bid-on-canadian-surface-combatant

  His Majesty’s Canadian Ship Margaret Brooke commissioned into service

  Today, the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) officially welcomed His Majesty's Canadian Ship (HMCS) Margaret Brooke into naval service with a commissioning ceremony. This ceremony marks a significant achievement for both the RCN and the Canadian shipbuilding industry. The introduction of a second Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ship (AOPS) delivered under the National Shipbuilding Strategy, which sustains thousands of jobs annually in Canada, will enhance the RCN's ability to enforce sovereignty and meet the future defence challenges in Canada's offshore and Arctic waters. A ship's commissioning ceremony is both a long-standing naval tradition, and, a special event for the ship's company – proud sailors who – have just returned from the ship's first deployment where they assisted communities in Atlantic Canada affected by Hurricane Fiona. The commissioning of HMCS Margaret Brooke included a symbolic presentation of the commissioning pennant, as well as the symbolic presentation of the “keys to the ship” to the Commanding Officer, Commander Nicole Robichaud. https://www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/news/2022/10/his-majestys-canadian-ship-margaret-brooke-commissioned-into-service.html
