Votsis Class ( Combattante IIa or S-148 Type Class or Tiger-class fast attack craft)

The Type 148 Tiger class fast attack craft is a modification of the French La Combattante II design for the Bundesmarine (German Federal Navy).
The La Combattante had been designed by Lurssen of Germany for Israel, but were built in France by Constructions
Mecaniques de Normandie in Cherbourg (CMN) for political reasons.
Eight of the boats were laid down by CMH, but completed by Lurssen.

The boats were commissioned into the Bundesmarine in the mid-1970s, replacing the Jaguar-class boats of the 3rd and 5th Squadrons.
At first the boats did not receive names, only numbers, but these were introduced later at the insistence of the crews.

The ships served for 30 years, and received major updates in 1982—84 and 1990—92.
After decommissioning they were scrapped or sold to different countries.
No direct replacements were procured as due to the changed operating conditions the Deutsche Marine has reduced the number of these
fast attack boats drastically and procured instead a smaller number of corvettes.
In total 20 crafts were built and served with German Federal Navy of which six
..............(6) were transferred to Greece the period 1994-1995 and 2000,P72-P73-P76-P77(Exocet) & P74-P75(Harpoon)
six (6) to Chile the period 1997-1998
and five (5) to Egypt in 2002 while the remaining three (3) were scrapped.
The class is the older class of FACs in service with the three navies and it is about to be decommissioned and to be replaced by modern vessels;
currently in Hellenic Navy they serve three (3) boats which will be replaced after the commissioning of more of Roussen class FACs,
in Chilean Navy they serve two (2)
and in Egypt all the boats with plans the vessels to be replaced as well.
