	Orca Class training vessels - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Orca Class are new training and patrol vessels being built for the Canadian Forces Maritime Command.
		A $70 million CAD contract for 6 vessels, with an option for a further 2, was awarded in early November 2004 to Washington Marine Group.
		At 20 knots, these vessels will be 5 knots faster than the Kingston Class multi-use patrol vessels, but slower than many purpose-built patrol vessels such as the 30-knot US Coast Guard Island Class cutter.

		The patrol vessel and boarding boat should be identified as being on fisheries patrol in accordance with the Convention on the Law of the Sea.
		Fisheries Administrators should ensure that their field patrol staff are all trained to be very observant and to note details of the situation as soon as a vessel is sighted, until it is decided to order the vessel to port or to permit it to carry on with its activities.
		An officer on the bridge of the patrol vessel is assigned to note all activities during the approach and while the boarding team is on the vessel.

		Vessel and aircraft facilities will be completely equipped in accordance with District policies and manned by qualified crews.
		Look for vessels deploying BRAVO flag (square red flag) or a red light, any tank barge alongside a vessel at anchor or at a dock; any vessel with buckets or bags under deck scuppers, or tank trucks proceeding upon or within the dockside area.

		One feature of the tragic occurrence off Ballycotton on 7 July last is the question mark which still hangs over the particular boat used on that fateful day in which four officers lost their lives.
		I acknowledge that shortly after the tragedy the Minister issued an instruction that all patrols by the fishery boards be stopped.

		The Future Offshore Patrol Vessel (FOPV) project embodies sharper timescales from the issue of Invitations to Tender by MoD in December 2000 to receipt of innovative bids from industry and announcement of preferred bidder– all achieved in a little over three months.
		The River Class will be available for patrol duty for twice as many days a year than the Island Class and it is therefore claimed that this enables the three new ships to carry out the same tasks as the five vessels they replace.

	ACTD - Advanced Starship Design Bureau \| Defiant-class Specs
		When the Borg threat drove the redesign of the pathfinder vessel, it was decided to compact the platform with warp nacelles and other structures, which were pulled in closer to the engineering hull, minimizing the sensor cross-sectional area and vulnerable appendages.
		Typically used when the vessel is totally disabled, it should be noted that once the warhead is launched it cannot be reattached to its parent craft without the assistance of a space station equipped to handle small starships.
		Even with her parent vessel under attack, the Type-18 was designed to function in battle situations and could even be used as an escape vehicle should the need arise.

		Both the Intrepid- and Saber-class vessels in the FBP are considered the weaker counterparts of those serving in Starfleet.
		This claim is understandable, as the Intrepid- and Saber-class vessels in FBP service are not as fully equipped as their Starfleet counterparts as it has been FBP policy that FBP vessels should not be considered as part of Starfleet and therefore, as part of a military organisation.
		Today (2378), the Federation Border Patrol is at the beginning of contributing a useful and much needed role for the Federation for basic protection and patrol duties.

		The Castle Class were designed as purpose built Offshore Patrol Vessels (OPVs) to either relegate the aging Ton Class vessels to coastal waters or replace them altogether.
		As Offshore Patrol Vessels (OPVs) the two of the primary duties of these ship have been to patrol North Sea Gas and Oil Fields (with up to 50 Royal Marines embarked for anti-terrorist operations) and to act as Fishery Protection Vessels.
		However they are capable of a fulfilling a number of additional roles including that of environmental protection vessels (they have detergent spraying facilities for dispersal of oil slicks) and as minelayers (they have undergone tests for this role).

		The Castle Class vessels are the largest dedicated patrol vessels operated by the Royal Navy.
		Although the normal complement of the vessels is 42 (maximum of 50) they can accommodate a Royal Marines platoon of up to 25 members.
		The uses of such a helicopter could include, the transfer of a Royal Marines platoon (although when a covert landing is required, it is likely that the Royal Marines would use of the RIB boats) medevac operations, along with general provisioning and transfer operations.

	Ships of the Royal Navy - Island Class Patrol Vessels (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The Island Class vessels were first commissioned in 1978 and their primary purpose is fishery protection and the protection of North-Sea oil and gas platforms.
		Realistically no dedicated anti-aircraft capability is required because these vessels mainly operate close to the territorial boundaries (although they are ocean-going capable) and so land-based air cover could be provided when necessary.
		The vessels are relatively old now although this does not harm their operational capability as these vessels do not require a high-level of modern naval equipment.
