HMPNGS Ted Diro (P401)

HMPNGS Ted Diro (P401) was the first Guardian-class patrol boat to be completed. Australia designed and provided four Pacific Forum-class patrol vessels to Papua New Guinea in 1987 and 1988, and in 2015 confirmed she would be replacing those vessels with four larger, and more capable, Guardian-class vessels.
Ted Diro replaced HMPNGS Rabaul. Australia transferred the vessel to Papua New Guinea on 30 November 2018.
