The Zahra-class Corvette, also known as Pattern Z Corvette was one of the primary ASW-vessels of the Sultan's Navy during the Decolonization Wars, originally developed not as an ASW-vessel but as a mine-clearing vessel, based on a commercial fishing vessel. The last ones were phased out in 1952 and replaced by the Damir-class Corvettes.
Despite its many and numerous flaws and lacks, the Zahra-class did pioneer a few changes in Kyrenaian Shipbuilding, amongst them the widespread usage of diesel engines.
