Cruel Seas: ML 303 Motor Launch
By far the largest of Royal Navy flotilla vessels were the ML (motor launches), used for a multitude of purposes including harbour defence, anti-submarine work, convoy escorts, minesweeping and air-sea rescue. Crewed by 16 souls, they weighed 85 tonnes and were 112 feet long. Their 1200hp engines could take them to a speed of around 20 knots.
The Fairmile B ML 303 Gunboat comes in packs of two (plus data cards) to boost your Royal Navy coastal forces.
