The Jaco class is a class of two patrol boats operated by the Timor Leste Defence Force's Naval Component. The boats were built in China to the Type 062 class gunboat (also known as the Shanghai II class) design. The two boats are named Jaco and Betano and were commissioned into East Timorese service in late June 2010.{{cite news |last=McGuirk |first=Rod |title=East Timorese president prefers 'fake Gucci' warships from China to Western military hardware |url=http://dailygleaner.canadaeast.com/article/1106474 |access-date=18 July 2010 |date=23 June 2010 |agency=The Canadian Press}}{{cite web |title=Ceremony for the Delivery of New Patrols Vessels, Jaco Class, to the F-FDTL Naval Force |url=http://timor-leste.gov.tl/?p=2865&lang=en |publisher=Government of Timor-Leste |access-date=6 August 2010}}
