The ships of the F120 Köln class of frigates were the first major
warships built in Germany after World War II. They were the world's first ships to feature a combined diesel and gas propulsion system (CODAG). The ships received numerous refits during their long careers with new electronics and torpedo tubes. They were replaced by Type 122 / Bremen class frigates in the 1980s and four ships were sold to the Turkish Navy. |
