The '''''Rége Arturo''-class''' are a series of multi-role naval vessels originally designed and built for the [[Royal Tavari Armed Forces#Royal Tavari Marshalls|Royal Tavari Marshalls]] Coast Guard Division as the ''Nežeren''-class. Tavaris originally ordered 12 of the vessels, which were intended to replace the Coast Guard's entire fleet of cutters. However, in 2021, citing "operational and strategic changes" in military needs, Tavaris sold four of the vessels to the [[Royal Antoran Armada]], who renamed them the ''Rége Arturo''-class. The remaining 8 ''Nežeren''-class cutters remain in service with the Tavari Coast Guard Division. |

The rollout of the class in Tavaris was part of that country's series of significant upgrades in naval capacity in the 21st century, after deployment in the [[Arkian Civil War|Volscine Civil War]] in 2004 and 2005 made it clear to Tavari officials that they had fallen behind. Unlike the Royal Tavari Navy's broadly popular moves of constructing two aircraft carriers and two nuclear submarines, however, the ''Nežeren'' project saw public backlash in relation to its cost, which exceeded $8 billion SHD. This led to an average cost-per-vessel of $740 million SHD, significantly higher than the predicted $650 million SHD cost in the 2005-2006 Tavari defense budget. However, at the time the program began in 2005, the ships were cited as top-of-the-line and deployable in a wide variety of operations including nearly all environments in which the Coast Guard Division operated: search-and-rescue, in ports and waterways, counter-terrorism, anti-drug trafficking, law enforcement, as well as deployment when needed in defense operations. The vessels were designed to be able to function in both low- and medium-threat combat environments with capability in anti-surface and naval gunfire support |

The vessels have a reduced radar cross-section giving them a higher degree of stealth than previous generations of similar vessels. |

The Rége Arturo-class are a series of multi-role naval vessels originally designed and built for the Royal Tavari Marshalls Coast Guard Division as the Nežeren-class. Tavaris originally ordered 12 of the vessels, which were intended to replace the Coast Guard's entire fleet of cutters. However, in 2021, citing "operational and strategic changes" in military needs, Tavaris sold four of the vessels to the Royal Antoran Armada, who renamed them the Rége Arturo-class. The remaining 8 Nežeren-class cutters remain in service with the Tavari Coast Guard Division.
The rollout of the class in Tavaris was part of that country's series of significant upgrades in naval capacity in the 21st century, after deployment in the Volscine Civil War in 2004 and 2005 made it clear to Tavari officials that they had fallen behind. Unlike the Royal Tavari Navy's broadly popular moves of constructing two aircraft carriers and two nuclear submarines, however, the Nežeren project saw public backlash in relation to its cost, which exceeded $8 billion SHD. This led to an average cost-per-vessel of $740 million SHD, significantly higher than the predicted $650 million SHD cost in the 2005-2006 Tavari defense budget. However, at the time the program began in 2005, the ships were cited as top-of-the-line and deployable in a wide variety of operations including nearly all environments in which the Coast Guard Division operated: search-and-rescue, in ports and waterways, counter-terrorism, anti-drug trafficking, law enforcement, as well as deployment when needed in defense operations. The vessels were designed to be able to function in both low- and medium-threat combat environments with capability in anti-surface and naval gunfire support and limited capability in anti-air. The vessels have a reduced radar cross-section giving them a higher degree of stealth than previous generations of similar vessels.
