Portugal will receive two U.S. Navy Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigates during 2005, and two new-construction Type 209-class submarines have been ordered from Germany for delivery beginning in 2008 or 2009. This delivery could expand to include a third submarine of the same class. They probably will replace the two French Daphné-class boats that have served since the late 1960s.
