The United Arab Emirates Navy (UAEN) is the naval branch of the United Arab Emirates Armed Forces. It is a small force of about 3,000 personnel. It maintains 12 well-equipped coastal patrol boats and eight missile boats. Although primarily concerned with coastal defense, the Navy is constructing a six-unit class of blue water corvettes in conjunction with French shipbuilder CMN. The UAE maintains a battalion-sized marine force called the UAE Marines equipped with BMP-3 armoured personnel carriers from the Soviet Union/Russia. Swedish shipbuilder Swede Ship Marine has built four 24 m Amphibious Troop Transport Vessels and one 25 m Fast Supply Vessel for the UAE Navy. Three additional vessels are being built by Swede Ship Marine for the UAE Navy.
