Oksøy class mine hunter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Oksøy-class minehunting vessels are almost identical to the Alta class mine sweepers. The only differences are the equipment on the aft deck and aft 1. deck, the sonars (2 instead of one), and the length of the superstructure on 1. deck. The minehunters carry two ROV's, and when in active service a few highly trained divers, with competance in mine clearing. While the minesweepers have only one rigid inflateable boat, the oksøy-class carries two, one for the divers and one for other purposes. For other info, see Alta class mine sweeper.
