I served one year on an MTB. These boats main object was to lie silent and camoflaged in a Norwegian fjord, and then when the russians came charge a battlegroup and fire all they've got on it. Off course that was before. Now our primary mission is to escort ships and do recon work.

But they do pack a punch armed with 6 penguin anti-ship missiles, 2 Torpedos and a 40mm gun. Picture having a squadron of 3 attacking your battlegroup. (adds up to 6 torpedoes and 18 missiles innbound). They do about 30knots. In addition we have som air defence with a small mistral anti air missile. And against small targets we have 2 7.62 MGs
