Indonesian Navy Welcomes Second Italian-Made Multipurpose Combat Ship

“The commissioning ceremony took place at the Navy’s Fleet Command II base. The warship had embarked on a long journey from Italy since February 11, 2026, making stops in Morocco, Nigeria, South Africa, and Mauritius before arriving at Tanjung Priok Port in Jakarta on March 26 for handover to Fleet Command II.”

“KRI Prabu Siliwangi-321 is the second ship of its class to join Fleet Command II, following the earlier induction of KRI Brawijaya-320, also built by Fincantieri, last year.”

“Both ships were originally constructed for the Italian Navy under the names Marcantonio Colonna and Ruggiero di Lauria before being acquired by Indonesia’s Defense Ministry for €1.18 billion. They were subsequently renamed KRI Brawijaya-320 and KRI Prabu Siliwangi-321 on January 29, 2025.”
