Both Tromp-class frigates entered service in 1975/-76. Their primary task was area air defense. They acted as flagships for the COMNLTG (Commander Netherlands Task Group). Their large radome (which housed a 3D radar antenna) is why the ships had the nickname 'Kojak', after the bald-headed actor in the famous crime tv-series. This book presents an overview of the development and operational use of the Tromp-class Frigates with many photos and illustrations.
