Not that I'm aware of. I remember hearing that a couple of foreign navies were interested but backed off due to the price.

No. In fact Northrup Grumman is pitching a greyfunnel version of its Coastie National Security Cutter (an actual blue water not littoral ship) to meet the Patrol Frigate requirement.
