USCG selects Canadian design for up to six new icebreakers:



Note this is a derivative of the Multi-purpose Icebreaker of the Canadian Coast Guard, of which 16 are contracted to be built in the next 10 years, after the heavy Polar icebreaker is completed.


Note as well that a Davie design has also been selected by the USCG for 6 additional vessels based on their Multi-purpose polar support ship (MPPS). Less information available on that one, but it appears it was based on a Finish design that Davie inherited when they bought Helsinki Shipyards in 2022.
