Angola has been revealed as the buyer of four Super Dvora Mk 3 patrol boats built by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI).

When the boats were ordered in 2015, IAI only stated that they were going to an undisclosed African country.

The high-speed Super Dvora Mk3s will be, "employed in coastal defence, exclusive economic zone protection and homeland security missions."

The Super Dvora class is currently in service with the navies of Israel, Sri Lanka and Myanmar.
