Round three, here we go again

Ohhh Wan, you are a funny guy, I told you you don’t have to cut any more hair off mate! Keep going like this and you’ll end up like Sir Bob when he played the title role in the movie “The Wall” which came from Pink Floyd’s song (I still remember seeing that movie for the first time and getting the jitters when he shaved his nipples off- major ouch).

Sayura of Sri Lanka … and I looked at Indian navy SUKANYA CLASS … because of that dark grey color … well, there goes the nose hair ….

Ok guys here are the answers all up:

1. Laksamana Muhamad of Malaysia
2. LPC Johnson of Chilie
3. Al Hani of Lybia
4. Antiploiarhos Laskos of Greece
5. Sayura of Sri Lanka
6. Al Arrhamani of Morroco
7. Oslo of Norway
8. Pacific Class Patrol Boat of Papua New Guinea
9. Virrat of India
10. Nelson of Trinidad and Tobago

I expected the Virrat to have been one of the first, oh well. I think I’ll go back to just five pics, as Terran will concure, I had problems with bandwidth.

The last four pics:
Sayura
Pacific class boat
Virrat
Neslon

The smoke stack is not of a Riviere class though 😉

Four left and I expected one of them to have gone already, interesting!

Ok I conceed defeat on this patrol boat, it is LPC Johnson of Armada de Chilie, one of five Dvora Class boats in service.

Well done guys, and well done Jester for spotting the flag.

It’s not a Descubierta Class of the Spanish Navy, rather one of the Morrocan fleet
The Al Arrhamani

OK, its fair to point out its Al Arrhamani, as most spanish Descubiertas have lost their Bofors launchers recently, and do not look like that anymore.

On mistery ship #5 the smoke stack looks pretty similar to a Cdt, Riviere class, or some variation of it.

As for the fast patrol boat #2, the chilean flag behind the bridge is a giveaway. Its a israeli built boat in service with the chilean navy, that should pretty much narrow down the search.

King Jester

sadly it’s not another Super Dvora

Oy! A Dvora is not another Super Dvora!

“Following on the experience gained in earlier generations of fast patrol craft designed and built by IAI-Ramta and including the Dabur, Shapirit, Dvora and Super Dvora Mk. I, classes of FPC, the Super Dvora Mk. II incorporates more than 25 years of experience gained in combat and peacetime operation in the Israel Navy and other navies around the globe.”

Dabur

Dvora

Super Dvora

Anyway, if it is not a Dvora (e.g. in Sri Lankan service), my next bet would be USN riverine craft PBR

OK had a bit of a think, I’ll give you one of them, the other is wrong!

The Al Arrhamani

Jester, you don’t know how close you are mate hahahahahaha

My guesses for:

# 5: Comandant Riviere class, French Navy

# 6: Descubierta Class, Spanish Navy

King Jester

Terran: mate you know it is 😉 It’s Oslo herself

AB: You eventually got it and it was backed up by Wan

Wan: mate I’m suprised, guess you were tired so that’s ok. You only got three right, sadly it’s not another Super Dvora and no it’s not an FS-1500 But that was a good guess (really impressed). However you did get the Greek Combattante III class boat, the Lybian Ship and the Laksamana Muhamad.
