Wow, that was some serious upgrade that was planned!
Would of made a nice little all-round frigate.

Is there reason to think the torpedo area would be open from beam to beam? I'd sort of expect it to be plated in.

Very interesting, and excellent drawings.

72m Offshore Patrol Vessel

In 2007 Royal Thai Naval Dockyard designed large patrol vessel for ‘Offshore Patrol Vessel Project’. First indigenous OPV base on Hua hin class patrol boat and add 15% of length from 60 m to 72 m.

72m OPV armed one 76/62 mm gun, one 30 mm gun, two 12.7 mm guns, and four Anti-ship missiles.





PS: This project Royal Thai Navy has selected River-class Batch 2 from BVT Surface Fleet, UK

And this is Hua hin class patrol boat

Very nice work and good to see you back in action drawing ships again.

One small point, you have a stray 'e' left over from the template near the bows.
