Modernisation

All six frigates have had their steam turbine power plants replaced with marine diesel engines.[5]

The frigates of the Ahmad Yani-class are due to be replaced by the Martadinata-class frigates (Sigma PKR 10514); the first of which, Raden Eddy Martadinata (331), was commissioned on 7 April 2017.[6]
