Description

Tarifa is a Chilreu-class patrol vessel integrated into the Maritime Action Force of the Spanish Navy, tasked with safeguarding maritime interests through surveillance and fisheries protection missions, both in international waters and national fishing zones.

The vessel features a helicopter landing and take-off deck, two 7-meter jet-propelled boats similar to those used by the Special Operations Group (GEO) of the Spanish National Police, and a range of fixed and mobile weapon systems installed post-delivery. Tarifa is also the only vessel in its class equipped with a sea-spill collection system.
