Naval Team Denmark is developing a multi-role ship for the Danish navy capable of peace-support operations. Called the Standard Flex 3500 (SF 3500), the ship will have a displacement of 4,000 tons and feature a reinforced steel hull construction surrounding a floating base that can be adjusted to the needs of peace-related operational requirements. The SF 3500 will be configured to hold a heavy-lift helicopter or two medium-size helos and have rear and side roll-on/roll-off capabilities.
