President Irfaan Ali yesterday announced on his Facebook page that the 115 Defiant monohull patrol vessel, designed and built by American company Metal Shark, had arrived in Guyana to join the Guyana Defence Force’s fleet. Metal Shark last year had said that the vessel was designed by its in-house engineering team and built at the company’s Franklin, Louisiana production facility. It was acquired via direct purchase and will join eight other Metal Shark vessels currently in service with the GDF. (President Irfaan Ali’s Facebook page photo)
