Flyvefisken Class Patrol Ship

The Flyvefisken class patrol vessels are warships of the Royal Danish Navy. The class is also known as the Standard Flex 300 or SF300 class.

The Flyvefisken ships were constructed using an innovative modular design known as StanFlex: they have a standard hull in which containerised weapons or systems can be placed. This allows them to rapidly change roles, typically in 48 hours. This enables the ships to be configured to perform the following roles:

Surveillance/pollution control
Combat
Mine countermeasures/minehunter (MCM)
Minelayer
