The Waspada class is a class of fast attack craft that was built for the Royal Brunei Navy by Vosper Thornycroft in the late 1970s. Three vessels were built, and as of 2009 all three remain in service.
In 2011 it was announced that Brunei would donate the Waspada and the Pejuang to Indonesia as training vessels.[1]
