The Jaco class is a class of two patrol boats operated by the Timor Leste Defence Force's Naval Component.[1] The boats were built in China to the Type 062 class gunboat (also known as the Shanghai II class[2]) design. The two boats are named Jaco and Betano and were commissioned into East Timorese service in late June 2010.[3][4]
