The semi - displacement vee hull is fabricated from aluminium alloy , and each vessel is built to a combination of Det Norske Veritas standards for high - speed light craft and RAN requirements . The " Armidale " s can travel at a maximum speed of , and are driven by two propeller shafts , each connected to an MTU 16V M70 diesel . The ships have a range of at , allowing them to patrol the waters around the distant territories of Australia , and are designed for standard patrols of 21 days , with a maximum endurance of 42 days . The main armament of the " Armidale " class is a Rafael Typhoon stabilised gun mount fitted with an M242 Bushmaster cannon . Two machine guns are also carried . Boarding operations are performed by two , waterjet propelled rigid - hulled inflatable boat s ( RHIBs ) . Each RHIB is stored in a dedicated cradle and davit , and is capable of operating independently from the patrol boat as it carries its own communications , navigation , and safety equipment . Each patrol boat has a standard ship ' s company of 21 personnel , with a maximum of 29 . The " Armidale " s do not have a permanently assigned ship ' s company ; instead , they are assigned to divisions at a ratio of two vessels to three companies , which rotate through the vessels and allow the " Armidale " s to spend more time at sea , without compromising sailors ' rest time or training requirements . A 20 - berth auxiliary accommodation compartment was included in the design for the transportation of soldiers , illegal fishermen , or unauthorised arrivals ; in the latter two cases , the compartment could be secured from the outside . However , a malfunction in the sewerage treatment facilities aboard " Maitland " during pre - commissioning trials in August 2006 pumped hydrogen sulfide and carbon monoxide into the compartment , non - fatally poisoning four sailors working inside , after which use of the compartment for accommodation was banned across the class . " Maitland " was constructed by Austal at their shipyard in Henderson , Western Australia . She was commissioned into the RAN in Newcastle , New South Wales on 29 September 2006 . A day later , the ship was granted the right of Freedom of Entry to her namesake city , Maitland . Operational history . " Maitland " is assigned to " Assail " Division , and is based in Darwin .
