Hauk patrol boats are a series of Norwegian fast attack craft. Hauk means hawk in Norwegian. They were ordered in the 1970's and the first boat, Hauk, was commissioned on 17 August 1977. Designed as a development of the Storm- and Snøgg-class, by Lieutenant-Commander (later Captain) Harald Henriksen, the 14 Hauk class vessels make up the Coastal Combat flotilla, responsible for protecting the rugged Norwegian coastline. The ships have been continuously modernized and are today known as "Super-Hauks." The Royal Norwegian Navy deployed four of these warships for anti-terror patrol in the Strait of Gibraltar.

The Hauk class ships have been modernized to meet the arrival of the new and more modern Skjold class MTBs. This modernization includes the Senit 8 CMS, Link 11 (receive only), modifications of the Penguin missiles and upgrades on the navigation equipment. Specified prospect on request!

They are ideal for pirates and drugrunners. Small, fast and agile!

[ggk]

3 million Euros = 4.2723 million U.S. dollars

This does not factor in costs for refitting or upgrades.

I wonder which navy could use a boat like this. Iraq? The Phillipines?

[Lasse]

I want one, I could tube after it.
I'll come and pick it up on monday, ok?

Iraq could certainly use it... they would be extremely happy to have some teeth to protect the two offshore oil loading terminals... but as i can see from the above message, its open to "nato partners only" which disqualifies Iraq.

I wonder if the USN can buy it for us via FMS
