The Ardhana class is a class of patrol boat that was built for the United Arab Emirates Navy in the early 1970s and commissioned in 1975. The six vessels were the largest craft in the UAE fleet at the time of the unification of its armed forces in 1976. The vessels mounted 30mm cannon and these remained the heaviest weapon in the navy's arsenal until the acquisition of Exocet missiles in 1980. A decision was announced in 2004 that the that Ardhana class will be decommissioned and replaced by the Baynunah-class corvette.
