Project history

Patrol and guard boats which were a part of the Gouvernementmarine, type "P" were slow-speed, and type "S" were fast. Built on colonial wharfs under own projects, slightly improved from a series to a series.

Modernizations

None.

Naval service

All boats were lost or have been destroyed by crews during time of Japanese offensive. Later Japanese had been salvaged and commissioned P11, 12, 13 (or 14), 15 and 16. Former boat P13 (or P14) was lost in 1943, remaining in 1945 were returned to the Netherlands and, presumably, in 1950 — 1951 all were transferred to Indonesia.
