Wikipedia:

The MEKO family of warships was developed by the German 
company Blohm + Voss. MEKO® is a registered trademark. 
The acronym stands for "multi-purpose combination". It 
is a concept in modern naval shipbuilding based on 
modularity of armament, electronics and other 
equipment, aiming at ease of maintenance and cost 
reduction. MEKO ships include families of frigates, 
corvettes and ocean-going patrol boats. Construction of 
MEKO ships began in the late seventies with the design 
and later building of Nigeria's MEKO 360 H1
