THF-1 Mizuri Class Hydrofoil Frigate

The first ship developed and designed by Tiboula Defense Contracting Inc., the Mizuri Class Frigate is an extremely agile ship. Lightly armed and armored, it is designed to for patrol or support roles.

The weapons compliment of this vessel is capable of striking air, sea and underwater targets. It has a single 3" cannon capable of striking sea targets, six 14" torpedo tubes for engaging ships and submarines and two packs of Sea Sparrow missiles for use against air targets. A quartet of .50 caliber machine guns rounds out the weaponry, providing defense against air targets.

It is powered by a diesel engine when hullbound and a gas turbine when foilbound. The diesel engine is capable of providing speeds of up to 17 knots, just enough to raise the ship onto its foil, when the gas turbine takes over. The gas turbine is then capable of propelling the ship up to an amazing 59 knots top speed. The ship can also safely lean over up to an angle of 40 degrees from vertical, allowing a very small turning circle.

The Mazuri also comes in two variants, R2 and R3. The R2 variant is equipped with a Harpoon launcher instead of the 3" gun, and the R3 variant has the helipad replaced by a series of VLS cells.

The Mazuri is a very capable patrol and escort frigate, easily able to surprise its adversaries with its speed and armament.
