Kampot-class, Cambodian Sea Truck laid down 1946
This design is a classic example of the Asian-built "Sea Truck": designed to be easily and cheaply manufactured and maintained in all manner of primitive conditions. The Cambodian Navy will employ the craft for training, transport of men and materiel, and virtually every other task under the sun.

Displacement:
160 t light; 166 t standard; 318 t normal; 439 t full load

Battambang (La Combattante II)-class Patrol Torpedo Vessel
Displacement: 160 tonnes (light), 175 tonnes (normal)
Length: 42.5 m (- ft) overall
Beam: 6.8 m (- ft)
Draught: 2.1 m (- ft) full load
Machinery: 4 Alsthom-SACM MD.12/135 marine diesel engines, all of 3,000hp
Speed: 19 knots (cruising); 38 knots (sprint speed)
Cruising range: 650nm at 31 knots
Crew: 33 men
Armament:
- 2 x 40mm AA guns (one forward, one aft) in enclosed mounts

- 4 x 550mm torpedoes
- 2 racks for four depth charges or naval mines
Ships in Class: Battambang, Koh Kong, Preah Sihanouk, and Kampong Speu

Notes: Export-built version of the French La Combattante II torpedo boats. The largest difference is the use of 15mm Hotchkiss machine guns instead of 20mm or 23mm cannon. These vessels are envisioned as the primary surface combatants of the Cambodian Navy.
