The DDS Army's Maritime Support Regiment will receive 8 new Atlantic class patrol boats designed and built by a Proxima 5 company. The boats will be used for offshore and inland waters operations and will be armed with a 20mm cannon and a VLS firing dual purpose missiles.
The Orchid said that the DDS are looking into building a blue water navy at a later stage but at the moment will restrict themselves to mainly the inland waters environment to support land operations.
