BackgroundWhen the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea extended maritimes nations' exclusive economic zone (EEZ) to {{convert|200|km|nmi}}, Australia designed and built 22 patrol vessels for 12 of its fellow members of the Pacific Forum.[1] Australia provided the patrol vessels free of charge, and helped build port facilities and provide training. This allowed its neighbours to exercise sovereignty over their EEZ, intercept smugglers, poaching fishers, and provide emergency services. Australia will replace Neiafu and her two sister ships with two slightly larger and more capable vessels between 2019 and 2020.[4] DesignThe {{convert|31.5|m|ft|adj=on}} vessels displace 162 tonnes, and are built using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) equipment, instead of more expensive, high-performance, military-grade equipment, to ease the maintenance burden, since local maintenance will be performed in small, isolated shipyards.[5] Operational historyIn 2009, after 20 years of service, Neiafu returned to Australia for a major refit.[1] In 2015 Neiafu traveled to Vanuatu to provide aid following a typhoon.[7] In 2016 Neiafu participated in a joint exercise with vessels of other nations.[8] Neiafu completed another Australian refit in 2017.[9]References1. ^1 {{cite news | url = http://news.navy.gov.au/en/Sep2016/Fleet/3235/Cooperating-in-the-South-Pacific.htm#.WzHAo6ApA1K| title = Cooperating in the South Pacific| work = Australian Navy| author = Tony White| date = 2016-09-29| page = | location = | archiveurl = | archivedate = | accessdate = 2018-06-26| deadurl = No | quote = Involving more than 100 personnel from Tonga, the Cook Islands and Samoa, New Zealand and Australia, this year's iteration involved Cook Islands Police Patrol Boat Te Kukupa, Samoan Patrol Boat Nafanua and Tongan vessels Voea Late and Pangai. }} [1][2][3][4][5][6]2. ^1 {{cite news | url = http://www.australiandefence.com.au/6FE0297D-5056-8C22-C96C0A2870A6B02B| title = Pacific Patrol Boat upgraded| work = Australian Defence| author = | date = 2009-09-29| page = | location = | archiveurl = | archivedate = | accessdate = 2018-06-26| deadurl = No | quote = The 31.5-metre PPBs are built to a commercial standard and are used by Pacific nations for maritime surveillance and response, in particular fisheries patrols.}} 3. ^1 {{cite news | url = https://reliefweb.int/report/vanuatu/tonga-s-patrol-boat-assist-transportation-relief-and-humanitarian-supplies-vanuatu| title = Tonga's patrol boat to assist with transportation of relief and humanitarian supplies in Vanuatu| work = Relief Web| author = | date = 2015-03-23| page = | location = | archiveurl = | archivedate = | accessdate = 2018-06-26| deadurl = No | quote = Speaking to Radio Tonga, Lieutenant Colonel Lord Ve'ehala said the Voea Neiafu will be deployed to Vanuatu for three weeks and will assist with the transporting of relief supplies to outer islands.}} 4. ^1 {{cite news | url = http://www.mic.gov.to/news-today/press-releases/6953-completion-of-voea-neiafu-refit-by-australia| title = Completion of VOEA NEIAFU Refit by Australia| work = Government of Tonga| author = | date = 2017-10-06| page = | location = | archiveurl = | archivedate = | accessdate = 2018-06-26| deadurl = No | quote = On completion of the refit package, the boat was handed over to the crew under the command of Lieutenant Commander Semisi Tapueluelu for work-up on upgraded systems and preparations for passage back to Tonga.}} 5. ^1 {{cite news | url = http://www.tonga-broadcasting.net/?p=8881| title = Tonga to receive new patrol boats from Australia| work = Tonga Broadcasting| author = | date = 2017-08-22| page = | location = | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20170823045424/http://www.tonga-broadcasting.net/?p=8881| archivedate = 2017-08-23| accessdate = 2018-06-26| deadurl = No | quote = According to Component Commander of the Navy, Commander Haisi Fonohema, Tonga will receive the 2 new patrol boats by 2019-2020.}} 6. ^1 2 3 {{cite news | url = https://nautilus.org/publications/books/australian-forces-abroad/tonga/maritime-surveillance-adviser-tonga/| title = Maritime Surveillance Adviser -- Tonga| work = Nautilus Institute| author = | date = | page = | location = | archiveurl = | archivedate = | accessdate = 2018-06-26| deadurl = No | quote = }} }}{{DEFAULTSORT:Neiafu (P201)}} 3 : Naval ships of Tonga|Pacific Forum class patrol vessels|1989 ships |
