Shouldn't this be spelled with 2 s's - Albatross class fast attack craft? -- Mufka ^{(user) (talk) (contribs)} 22:10, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

nope, Albatros (both the bird, and the ship class) is spelled with one s in German. see also de:Albatros and de:Albatros-Klasse Kato2k6 00:08, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, if that's the case then the spelling on the links to this page should also have one s. -- Mufka ^{(user) (talk) (contribs)} 12:53, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My survey vessel was threatened with ship arrest for surveying without a permit a few years ago by a Tunisian naval vessel that I photographed whilst we were busy bribing its senior officers. Looks exactly like the German-service Type 143 photos. The Exocet launchers are very much in evidence. Did the Tunisians reinstate them? Either way, it would appear that the Wiki article information that the Tunisian Albatros's are without Exocet is wrong, assuming I was looking across a very narrow piece of Med' at an ex-German Albatros flying the Tunisian flag.

If someone can explain how I upload a photo I'll post one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.11.141.248 (talk) 22:27, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the vessels in the class were indeed originally named after birds of prey, but the albatross and cormorant are definitely NOT such birds!--Death Bredon (talk) 20:09, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
