A partial list:

Vospor (now BAE) - 2 1,200 ton corvettes for Oman built 1993-1997.

Yarrow (now BAE) - 2 2,300 ton corvettes for Malaysia built from the early 1990s to 1999.

BAE - 3 2,000 ton corvettes for Brunei built from 1995-2004 - Brunei decided to back out of the deal, a court decided BAE had fulfilled all of the contract and Brunei had to accept them, and Brunei put them up for sale - they were purchased by Indonesia.

BAE - 3 2,600 ton corvettes for Oman - last one delivered earlier this year.

BAE - 3 2,200 ton OPV for Trinidad & Tobago from 2007-2013 (T&T backed out, and the vessels were completed for Brazil).

BAE (and its Vospor subsidary) have been overseeing license-building of Vospor/BAE-designed FACs & OPVs in other nations from the early 1980s to present.
