Constructing the hull of a Damen Stan 2600.

The Damen Stan 2600 is a line of patrol vessels built or designed by Netherlands shipbuilding firm the Damen Group.[1]

The first vessels of this design were delivered to the Hong Kong Police.[2]

The United States Coast Guard Marine Protector class of cutters are built to the Damen Stan 2600 design.[2][3][4] A total of 78 Marine Protector class vessels were built by Bollinger Shipyards -- 74 for the US Coast Guard, two for the United States Navy, two for Malta and two for Yemen. Four of the last vessels, are owned by the United States Navy, while being crewed and managed by the USCG, and bearing USCG pennant numbers.[5] The Navy relies of these vessels to escort its big nuclear submarines as they enter and exit from their ports. Its big submarines are seen as vulnerable to suicide bombers until they can get to water deep enough to dive. The Navy's four vessels are equipped with a gyro-stabilized machine gun, remotely controlled from the bridge.

The Venezuelan Navy operates vessels built to the Damen Stan design.[6] The vessels were built in Venezuela. In March of 2008 a newly constructed vessel was sent to Nicaragua to try to solicit orders from the Government of Nicaragua.[7]

In November 2011 Ecuador signed a contract to build vessels of the related 2606 design for the Ecuadorian Coast Guard.[1][8][9]

In January 2012 Cuba and Venezuela entered into an agreement to cooperate in the construction of vessels built to the Damen Stan 2606 design.[10] The vessels will be built in the UCOCAR shipyards in Puerto Cabello, Venezuela.[11]

Australia ordered a hull to serve as a training vessel.[12]
