Can anyone help me with information regarding the Gyoraitei PT Boat as seen in BSP?

I've seen an image on the SB Archive's Real Life Designs, but no other info seems to be floating around. Any inlight will be greatly appreciated.

The one in the archive is likely the one I drew back in 2008-2009 using Battlestations Midway as a reference... it should definitely not be in the real life designs section.

I wasn't able to find any information on those boats. My understanding is that they were not a standardized type but rather ex-Dutch patrol boats pressed into service with the IJN.

Personally I think Eidos invented a boat to give the Japanese side a comparable PT boat to the Elcos available to the Allies.
