Finnish shipbuilder Rauma Marine Constructions (RMC) today laid the keel of the first of the four Squadron 2020 project multi-role Pohjanmaa-class corvettes that it is building for the Finnish Navy.

The keel of the ship was lowered in a cradle onto a building trestle inside the construction hall where the ship is being built. As is the tradition, two lucky coins were placed under the keel that will remain there once the ship is completed.
