The Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) has launched its first Sentinel-class offshore patrol vessel that can be configured for a wide range of maritime security missions. It is the first of four offshore patrol vessels. The new vessels will replace RSN's existing Sentinel-class Maritime Security and Response Vessels (MSRVs), which will remain in service until the offshore patrol vessels are fully operationalised, said the Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) on Friday (Oct 2). #sgnews #singapore Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
