Rosyth shipyard expected to win £1bn Danish navy contract

Rosyth shipyard in Fife is set to secure a £1 billion contract to build four frigates for the Danish navy, with decisions expected in the next six months. This potential deal follows a successful bid to construct five Type 31 ships for the Royal Navy, signifying a resurgence in Scottish shipbuilding. Babcock, running the yard, is also a finalist for a Swedish navy contract, highlighting the yard's growth and potential for more orders, which could increase the workforce to 4,000 employees.
