Project history

Save for the armament these closely resemble the 'La Combattante III' type large missile patrol boats in other navies including Israel's. The first group of four boats were ordered in September 1974 and all built by CM de Normandie at Cherbourg. The second group of six boats were ordered from the Hellenic Shipyard at Skaramanga in Greece, and were built under French supervision.
