Pohjanmaa-class (Squadron 2020)

A new class of Finnish multi-role corvettes under construction to replace four aging vessel classes at once, combining anti-submarine, mine-laying and air-defense capability with an icebreaking hull for year-round Baltic operations. It represents Finland's largest surface-combatant program in decades.

Full specifications

Firepower

Armament, payload and guidance.

Firepower specifications
Main armament Primary weapon: main gun, cannon or missile type.	1x 57 mm Bofors naval gun
VLS cells Vertical-launch missile cells on a warship, a proxy for magazine depth. Higher means more missiles before rearming.	8 Bottom 8% of warships
Torpedo tubes Number of torpedo tubes (submarines and some surface ships).	2 Stronger than 12% of warships

Physical

Dimensions, weight and crew.

Physical specifications
Length Overall length including gun/probe where applicable.	114 m

Naval

Displacement, speed, endurance and diving depth.

Naval specifications
Displacement Standard displacement in tonnes, the ship’s size class. Larger hulls carry more but cost more and are less agile.	3,900 t
Max speed Top speed in knots (surfaced, for submarines). Higher aids positioning and screening.	26 kn Stronger than 24% of warships
Range Cruising range in nautical miles. Nuclear vessels are effectively unlimited (fuel-wise). Higher means more reach without replenishment.	3,500 nmi Bottom 8% of warships
Endurance Days at sea before resupply. Higher sustains longer deployments.	14 days
Complement Crew size. Fewer eases manning cost; more may indicate a larger, more capable platform.	70
Aircraft carried Embarked aircraft/helicopters. Higher extends the ship’s sensor and strike reach.	1 Stronger than 21% of warships
Propulsion plant Machinery type, nuclear reactor, gas turbine (COGAG), CODAG, diesel-electric, AIP.	CODLAD hybrid diesel-electric

Program

Cost, production scale and operators.

Program specifications
Units built Total production run. Higher means proven manufacturing, mature logistics and spares availability.	4 Stronger than 59% of warships
