The Ghana Navy has taken delivery of four new patrol ships as part of efforts to boost the naval fleet for fishery controls and the protection of the country’s maritime boundaries.
Flag Officer Commanding the Western Naval Command, Commodore Timothy Appiah says the four vessels have come in good time to augment the navy’s capacity to protect the country’s oil resource west of Cape Three Points.
He told Joy News’ Kwaku Owusu Peprah that the fighter ships, equipped with machine guns, are capable of speeds of 25 knots and have been delivered faster than usual because of the Navy’s urgent need for them.
