La Combattante

La Combattante III==

See also: La Combattante III-class fast attack craft and La Combattante IIIb-class fast attack craft

The La Combattante III patrol boat was a type of fast attack craft built in France for export during the late 1970s and 1980s. The design was a modification of the successful La Combattante II type fast attack craft. Some 19 were built in various classes for several navies around the world.

Development==
In 1975 Constructions Mécaniques de Normandie (CMN) modified the design, adding nine metres to the length to improve seaworthiness and give more internal space; this gave a displacement of 359 tons and an overall length of 56 metres, though the armament remained the same. This design was designated La Combattante III.

Between 1975 and 1990 a further 19 were built for the navies of Greece, Tunisia, Qatar, and Nigeria. In addition were built for Israel (the Sa'ar 4 class), five in France and the remainder under licence in Israel. The Israelis also built, or assisted in building, nine vessels for South Africa, at the time under embargo for its Apartheid policy.

Add) Between 1975 and 1990 a further 19 were built for the navies of Greece, Tunisia, Qatar, and Nigeria.
