Pulau Rau-class minesweeper

The Pulau Rau-class minesweepers were a class of ten motor minesweepers of the Indonesian Navy, in service during the Cold War.

Design and construction
In 1954, the Indonesian Navy ordered 10 Pulau Rau-class minesweepers from Abeking & Rasmussen in West Germany. The Pulau Rau-class were modified R boats (i.e. motor minesweepers of a German World War II design) armed with one Bofors 40mm L/60 Mk 3 gun, two Oerlikon 20mm/70 Mk 10 guns and also mechanical minesweeping gear. They were built between 1954 and 1957 and remained in service for the next thirty years.
