| skos:scopeNote | Small, fast and powerful craft, typically having planing hulls, limited armament and sparse accommodation, used in military service for aviation-related purposes but not intended for offensive operations. Larger craft of this type were used offshore for air-sea rescue duties, while smaller examples were used in estuaries to support the operation of seaplanes and flying-boats. The former function has been taken over by helicopters while the latter is obsolete. |
