Old speedboat drivers will remember them well - the \u201eFlyvefisken\u201c, the flying fish of the Royal Danish Navy. They were developed towards the end of the Cold War specifically for sea patrols, surveillance of territorial waters, search and rescue services and maritime security tasks and were built from 1989 by Danyard A\/S in Aalborg as the standard Flex 300 class (14 boats, 54 metres, 480 tonnes). The boats were decommissioned in 2010 - four of them were successively sold to Lithuania. Six years later, four more boats were put back into service under the Portuguese flag and as patrol boats with slightly lighter armaments and have been sailing as the Tejo class to this day. They are now to be handed over to the Dominican Republic for around 50 million euros, including modernisation, training, spare parts and logistical support. From 2027 onwards, they are to sail to the Caribbean state every 10 months and substantially upgrade the Marina de Guerra's fleet.<\/p>\n
