Project history: The decision was taken on 22 December 1977 to order six ships of a projected twenty vessel programme, but lengthy delays have afflicted the programme, and a contract to build the first six was not awarded to St. John Shipbuilding until June 1983. Design was shared between St. John SB and Paramax Electronics, and three hulls were subcontracted to Marine Industries Ltd of Sore!, Quebec. In December 1987 six more were ordered.
