The Pabna class is a class of riverine patrol craft in service in Bangladesh. The ships were the first warships to ever be built in Bangladesh. They are operated by the Bangladesh Coast Guard.
The Pabna-class patrol craft were built at Dockyard and Engineering Works Limited. These vessels were the first ships of the Bangladesh Navy. Later on, in 1995, after the emergence of Bangladesh Coast Guard, the ships were transferred to them.
The ships are 22.9m (75.1feet) in length, 6.1m (20feet) in breadth and 1.9m (06.2feet) in draught. They have a displacement of 75 tons and a complement of 33 personnel. The ships carry one Bofors 40 mm gun of 60 calibers as armament. The crafts can be used for both coastal and riverine patrol.[1]
