Brief History
The Peacock Class is a class of patrol corvette built for the Royal Navy. Only five were constructed. The five ships of this class were originally part of the Hong Kong Squadron of the Royal Navy. The ships were built by Hall Russell in the United Kingdom and were commissioned into Royal Navy service in 1983 and 1984. They were specifically built for service in Hong Kong with the 6th Patrol Craft Squadron; for work in tropical climates they were fully air conditioned and were capable of remaining at sea during typhoons.
Ships In Class
HMS Peacock (P239)
HMS Plover (P240)
HMS Starling (P241)
HMS Swallow (P242)
HMS Swift (P243)
Current Status
P242 and P243 were both sold to the Irish Navy in 1988.
P239, P240, P241 were sold to Philippine Navy in 1997.
All ships are currently active.
