The Mirna class (referred to as the Type 171 in some sources) is a class of eleven patrol boats built for the Yugoslav Navy (Serbo-Croatian: Jugoslavenska ratna mornarica - JRM) by the Tito's Kraljevica Shipyard. Intended as a replacement for the earlier Type 131 patrol boats, the new class was completed during the early 1980s and commissioned in the JRM Maritime Border Brigade.

Design

Mirna class patrol boats were built between 1979 and 1985 for the needs of Yugoslav navy and were intended mainly for patrolling Yugoslavia's maritime borders, however it can also be outfitted with depth charges for ASW duties and it's Simrad SQ3D/SF sonar can detect submarines at ranges up to 1.8km (1.11mi). Their hull is made of steel and is divided into 7 watertight compartments, while the superstructure is made of aluminum alloy. It is also equipped with Decca RM 1216A navigational radar with maximum range of 88.9km (55.23mi). It's crew consists of two officers, five junior officers and fifteen sailors. [1]

History

Following the outbreak of the Croatian War of Independence, two boats were damaged and subsequently captured by Croatian forces, while another two were captured in the Šibenik Shipyard during the Battle of Šibenik. All four were commissioned in the Croatian Navy and are in active service as of 2017. The remaining seven boats were relocated to Boka Kotorska where they became part of the Navy of FR Yugoslavia. All seven were decommissioned during the early 2000s: two were handed over to the Ministry of Interior and scrapped in 2012 after seeing little service, while the remaining five were sold off to civilian owners.
