The ''Thetis''-class gunboats, was a class of five naval ships of the Hellenic Navy, originally developed for the German Navy as ''Class 420'' and first commissioned in 1961. Similar in size to corvettes, all five vessels were built by Rolandwerft, Bremen. In the German Navy there were designated as ''submarine hunters'' ((ドイツ語:U-Jagdboote)). The main armament of ''Thetis'' class ships consisted of 20-mm and 40-mm guns, Mk 46 Mod5 torpedoes and mines and A/S mortars. The ships were also equipped with sonar. Later the A/S mortars were replaced by a second 40-mm gun and the single torpedo tubes by triple mountings. Upgrades started in 2000 may have included enclosed 40-mm gun mountings and Rheinmetall 20-mm guns to replace the MGs. The last two ships of the class were decommissioned on 22 April 2010. ==Ships== *''Doxa'', P-63 ("Glory", ex-Najade, P 6054): commissioned in the German Navy on 12 May 1962, recommissioned in the Hellenic Navy on 6 September 1991, decommissioned on 22 April 2010.〔〔(HS Doxa on Hellenic Navy website )〕〔(27/4/2010 Παροπλισμος Κανονιοφόρων ΔΟΞΑ και ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΙΑ )〕 *''Eleftheria'', P-64 ("Liberty", ex-Triton, P 6055): commissioned in the German Navy on 10 November 1962, recommissioned in the Hellenic Navy on 7 September 1992, decommissioned on 22 April 2010.〔〔(HS Eleftheria on Hellenic Navy website )〕 *''Niki'', P-62 ("Victory", ex-Thetis, P 6052): commissioned in the German Navy on 1 July 1961, recommissioned in the Hellenic Navy on 6 September 1991, decommissioned on 2 April 2009.〔(HS ''Niki'' on Hellenic Navy website )〕 *''Agon'', P-66 ("Struggle", ex-Theseus, P 6056): commissioned in the German Navy in 1962, recommissioned for Hellenic Navy in the 8 November 1993, decommissioned in 2004, used as target and sunk with two Penguin missiles on 21 October 2008.〔〔http://www.defencenet.gr/defense/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5589&Itemid=51〕〔(HS ''Agon'' on Hellenic Navy website )〕 *''Karteria'', P-65 ("Perseverance", ex-Hermes, P-6053): Commissioned in the German Navy in 1962, recommissioned in the Hellenic Navy on 7 September 1992, decommissioned in 2004.〔〔(HS ''Karteria'' on Hellenic Navy website )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thetis-class gunboat」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
