Notes[1]

Gohar (Persian: گوهر) was a class of patrol boat that was built in the West Germany for the Imperial Iranian Navy. Three vessels in the class (named Gohar, Shahpar and Shahram) were delivered to Iran by Abeking & Rasmussen between 1969 and 1971.[1] In 1975, Iran transferred the boats to Sudan, where they were respectively renamed to Skeikan (or Shekan), Kadir (or Kader) and Karari.[1]
