Dark - class fast patrol boat The Dark class , or Admiralty " Type A " , were a class of eighteen fast patrol boats that served with the United Kingdom ' s Royal Navy starting in 1954 . All were named with a prefix of ' Dark ' . The class could be fitted as either motor gun boat s or motor torpedo boat s , depending on the type of armament carried . They were the only diesel engined fast patrol boats in the Royal Navy . The class was fitted ( along with the Nasty class ) with the Napier Deltic two - stroke diesel engine . This was of unique layout , an opposed - piston engine with a triangular layout of three banks , 18 cylinders in total . Construction . The boats were constructed with alloy framing and wooden decks and skin . The exception was " Dark Scout " which had all aluminium decks , skins and frames . Originally 27 units were ordered by the admiralty from seven builders . Nine were eventually cancelled in 1955 , including " Dark Horseman " which at the time was partially completed and on the stocks in the builders yard . The all - aluminium version was exported to Burma ( five units ) , Finland ( two units ) , and Japan ( one unit ) by builders Saunders - Roe . Design . With no previous experience of using diesel engines in vessels of this size , it was not fully understood how dirty they would get from the exhaust fumes . Originally launched in the normal Royal Navy grey , they eventually had their hulls painted completely black to disguise the staining from exhaust emissions . For a short while , a compromise half grey / half black combination was used . Fate . An Admiralty decision in 1957 took nearly all fast patrol boats out of commission , with nine of the new " Dark - class " to be laid up . On 20 December 1960 , the Admiralty state that the Coastal Forces would not be completely abandoned in case it needed to be expanded in the future . A special boat squadron was nominated , however it did not include any of the " Dark - class " . Several of the ships were sold to Wessex Power Units for sale onto the Italian Customs Service in February 1966 . Two were used for target practice , with " Dark Gladiator " sunk by HMS " Amazon " and HMS " Naiad " off Portland in December 1975 . At least two , " Dark Clipper " and " Dark Fighter " , managed to survive up to as recently as June 2001 when they were broken up in Malta . Legacy . The " Dark - class " would be the final commission of this quantity for patrol boats of this size and speed . The following classes had greatly reduced numbers with the Brave - class numbering only two vessels and Scimitar - class numbering only three . A similar hull design was used by Saunders - Roe in a prototype , the R - 103 , which led to the development of the experimental hydrofoil , HMCS " Bras d ' Or " ( FHE 400 ) , for the Royal Canadian Navy .
