The Victory-class multi-role combat vessel (MRCV) is a class of six ships being constructed for service with the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN), succeeding the Victory-class missile corvettes. First revealed in 2018, it is under development by the Defence Science and Technology Agency, DSO National Laboratories and ST Engineering, in a partnership with Swedish firm Saab Kockums and Danish firm Odense Maritime Technology.
The MRCVs are designed to fulfill two functions: to carry out the combat operations typical of a modern frigate and act as a base for autonomous and unmanned vehicles operating on the surface, underwater, and in the air. The class is slated for phased commissioning from 2028 to 2030, and will be among the largest vessels in the RSN when it enters service.
