The Pulicat class of patrol boats were a series of five water craft of Russian origin (ex-Poluchat class), which were in service of Indian Navy and were later-on transferred to newly formed Indian Coast Guard in 1977. They were ordered in 1965 and delivered in 1967. INS Panvel took part in the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. The boats in the series were named after coastal cities of India.[2][3][4]
