very nice, usually CG vessels are all gun, no need for short range missiles. of course, in war they could be fitted of course. I am not sure if you need a fully enclosed lifeboat. You can write in side "Ayutthaya Coast Guard" in you language (Thai, wright?) and just "Coast Guard" in English with smaller fond.

About gunnery, I think you are ok, but I prefer to have a two Breda 30mm guns and the M2 0.5''. An economic solution is to take a secondary gun from decommissioned ships if you can and integrate it into your electronics.

Hellenic Coast Guard (AU) operates several large OPV's based on frigate hull armed with an Oto Melara 76mm, twin Oto Breda Dardo and one or two 20mm remote control 20mm, plus twin 0.5" MGs. The larger OPV, 680 Class (or Zeus Mk3 if you like is 125m long, while smaller 670 Class (or Zeus Mk2) and 440 Class/HSY-102 are about the same size with Pairwa and shares armament with the Mk3 minus one 20mm. Both the Dardo's and the 20mm coming from earlier vessels and their combine age is more than a century old! (First generation Dardo and Oerlikon FF).

Great work!

odysseus1980, eswube : thanks

Ayutthaya Coast Guard cooperation with Ayutthaya Navy, Port Authority of Ayutthaya, The Customs Department, Immigration Bureau and Marine Police Division. The duty of Ayutthaya Coast Guard are provided through the following
- Dealing with Unlawful Acts by Foreign Oceanographic Research Vessels
- Maritime traffic management
- Countermeasures against Smuggling and Illegal Immigration
- Countermeasures against Piracy (Regional Cooperation Agreement on Combating Piracy and Armed Robbery against Ships in Asia-ReCAAP)
- Surveillance of Illegal Operations by Foreign Fishing Vessels
- Security against Maritime Conflict
- patrols Ayutthaya's territorial seas and Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) (cooperation with Ayutthaya Navy)

but some services still working by the navy.
- Search and rescue
- Hydrographic and oceanographic surveying
- Patrolling and Guarding the Waters
- Counter Terrorism

All coast guard vessels use only manual gun(not over 40mm) because she wasn't the warship, until 2013 the goverment approve to use gun director with the main gun. Pairwa Class install oto 76/62 gun because she is the navy reserve. i'm drawing Pairwa Class base on HTMS Pattani Class, the secondary gun area fit for small gun.



this is the Ayutthaya Ira Class 2016, refit by install Bofors 40 Mk4 gun, Selex SASS electro-optical director, Link11 and TIRA S MK.1 Combat Management System (3 Multi-function consoles)

A lot of high quality work in this tread.

100% agreed!

I'm in 100% agreement too!
