The Sentinel-class, or P-120 class, is a class of ocean patrol boats designed and constructed by Bluefront Inc. for the Kivuian Navy. They are designed to remain at sea for long periods of time and withstand rough sea conditions without significant degradation of their capabilities. Each ship is equipped with a flight deck that allows it to operate medium-sized helicopters, a sick bay with six beds, and two rigid inflatable boats. There are currently 6 ships in service.
