Hello
Have tried to search for more info about those interesting ships, but without any greater succes.
The best I was able to found was on israeli-weapons site:
http://www.israeli-weapons.com/weapons/naval/saar/Saar.html
http://www.israeli-weapons.com/weapons/naval/saar3/Saar3.html
http://www.israeli-weapons.com/weapons/naval/saar4/Saar4.html
http://www.israeli-weapons.com/weapons/naval/saar45/Saar45.html
Base overview is here:
http://www.hazegray.org/worldnav/
and here (but in czech language):
http://www.military.cz/izrael/navy/history/default.htm
Anybody have some other info and pics?
And pics of Alyia class boats sold to Mexico?
Regards
Ivan

Many of the older boats in the Saar series were scrapped or have been passed on to other navy’s e.g. Chili (Casma class = Sa’ar 4 type), Mexico (Aliya class = Sa’ar 4.5 type). So, you might be able to find a few pics of these boats with other Nation’s navies. Also search on “cherbourg boats” as the first boats were were built there and there’s a whole interesting story connected with that.
