Project history: Close to "SVAN 13ton fast", but with some improvements brought into a construction by Baglietto designers. On trials the boat reached nearby 45kts and recognised as more successful, than SVAN boats. The anti-submarine armament was presented by six small 50kg DCs and a hydrophone.
Modernizations: None.
Naval service: No significant events.
