    Were the Dutch De Zeven Provincien frigates built in the Netherlands or Romania?

    The reason why I'm posting this is because there doesn't seem to be information regarding where the hulls were built. I'm not sure if the hulls were built in Romania then shipped to the Netherlands for assembly.
