The German company Lurssen delivered the second batch of patrol boats to Egypt as part of an order involving 10 ships.
In November 2020, it was revealed that Egypt would receive nine Lurssen patrol boats and one coastal defence boat from Germany, under a deal worth 130 million Euros, after the failure of a contract with the original customer, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia had ordered 35 ships from Lurssen around 2013, but this deal was not executed.
