The Brave-class fast patrol boats were a class of two gas turbine motor torpedo boats (MTBs) that were the last of their type for the Royal Navy Coastal Forces division. They formed the basis for a series of simpler boats which were widely built for export. At the time of their introduction the Braves were the fastest naval vessels in the world. The installed GT produced a speed of a max 52 knots. They had a compliment of 3 officers and 17 ratings. They were built to be able to be used as either motor torpedo boats or motor gun boats. For the former role they had a 40 mm Bofors gun, four 21-inch (533mm)torpedoes and two depth charges, in the latter two 40mm guns and two torpedoes. It was planned to arm the ships with a new 3.3-inch (84mm) gun based on the 20-pounder tank gun in a stabilised mounting, but this was abandoned. They retired from use 1970,
Vosper that built the braves, went with a less expensive derivative and sold several boats to the following countries: W Germany (2), Denmark (5), Greece and Malaysia (4), Brunei and Libya
