Croatia's navy is better than Serbia's? I would like to see a list of their inventory.

[Dave the Dawg]

Croatia's navy is much smaller than Serbia's, but given Croatia's geography, it gets higher priority and budgets so, combined with more experienced Dalmatian sailors to recruit from, it may have the edge in quality. Neither are really up to speed for their tasks in the Adriatic.

Inventory:
1 Kralj Petar Kresimir IV class missile boat (another is being fitted out)
1 Šibenik class missile boat (former Yugoslavian Rade Konćar class)
1 Dubrovnik minelaying patrol boat (former Yugoslavian Russian made Osa class)
4 Novi Grad class small patrol boats (former Yugoslavian Mirna class)
1 Velebit midget sub (former Yugoslavian Una class)
2 Četina class LCUs (landing craft-utility)

The Velebit:

Aaah, I assume those are Swedish RBS-15 missiles? The whole vessel looks
kinda like Swedish navy patrol/missile vessels, like this Göteborg-class:

Yes, they're RBS-15s. The Kralj Petar Kresimir IV is based on the former Yugoslavian Rade Konćar class, which was a joint Yugoslav-Swedish design (although the Rade Konćar class had Soviet-made Styx missiles).
