Four Libyan patrol vessels, based on the Damen Stan Patrol 1605 design.

The Damen Stan Patrol 1605 is a design for 16 metre patrol vessels prepared by the Damen Group -- a Netherlands based shipping conglomerate.[1] Damon supplied 8 vessels to Libya in 2012 and 2013.

The vessels supplied to Libya had a crew of 6 and were armed by a pair of machine guns on the bow.[2] A pair of diesel engines generated 1340 horsepower, and could propel the vessels at 30 knots.
