Italy’s presence in the Persian Gulf and its military cooperation with Kuwait are being strengthened. Leonardo has signed a contract with Abu Dhabi Ship Building (ADSB), a subsidiary of the EDGE Group, to supply naval combat systems for latest-generation patrol vessels ordered from the shipbuilder by Kuwait.
As part of the “Al Dorra” programme, Kuwait has launched a modernisation of its maritime component by ordering eight FALAJ 3 Offshore Patrol Vessels (OPVs) built in the United Arab Emirates by ADSB.
