I would agree Lappino, with the demise of suspected amphibious assaults and cuts in defense spending, I think most navies have focused on fewer numbers of larger hulls that can be more multi purpose and longer ranged. Maybe the resurgence of Russia and other trouble spots in the world might change that.

Thanks, Hugh. It feels like there are fewer fast attack boats around the world these days, compared to, say, nineteen eighties...

Cheers

Nice catch Vlad. I like these Hayabusa boats. They're fast and pack a punch. Regards, Hugh
