冷战结束之后,美国海军抛弃以往引以为自豪的艨艟巨舰,看好小型多功能舰艇,战略重点由远洋转向近海。为此,他们订购了新型的“龙卷风”级海岸巡逻艇。或许这是未来十几年内将编入美国作战舰队的最不寻常的舰艇。这些艇均用气象术语命名,艇长51.82米,宽7.62米,吃水深2.38米,满载排水量320吨;动力为4台柴油发动机,4轴,1.34万马力;最高航速35节,巡航速度25节,最大

Its strategic focus shifted from the ocean to the offshore. To that end, they ordered a new “Tornado” class coastal patrol boat.

Power is 4 diesel engines with 4 axes and 13,400 horsepower. The maximum speed is 35 knots and the cruising speed is 25 knots ,maximum
