The Algerian El Radii-class frigate withdrew from the “Rais Hamido-21” maneuvers, which were carried out on the French coast during the period from 6 to 16 September 2021, due to the deteriorating condition of its missiles.

The frigate left the maneuvers by dragging after some say the engine stopped, and others say it was due to engine compartment burned due to a malfunction in one of the cannons.

Most likely..lack of maintenance

Frankly, it is a great embarrassment to enter maneuvers and not be able to complete them, the French did not even delay the news ..

Lack of maintenance? Maybe originally the engine design and spec got problem.

That's a very rare occurrence, especially for German equipment. Either a deflective piece of equipment or wrong procedure due to improper training and gaps in maintenance protocol like you said.

Probably both.
 
Bulshit news from an insignificant website, the maneuver was primarily for training in extinguishing fires. I do not know what went into the missiles, and this video is for the maneuver for those who understand French
