France is proposing a plan (based on the way its builds Airbus aircraft) for the Italian (Fincantieri) and German (HDW) shipyards to share the work on building new pan-European frigates.

France predicts that European countries could buy as many as 50 frigates through 2020, plus 30 more for export sales.--Stephen V Cole
