The Jerung class is a class of gunboats in service with the Royal Malaysian Navy. This class is based on the same design as the {{sclass|Intrépida|fast attack craft}} in service with Argentine Navy, the Lurssen FPB/TNC-45 fast attack craft and are built locally by Malaysia-Germany joint venture, Hong Leong-Lurssen Shipyards. The Jerung class is equipped only with Bofors 57 mm gun and Bofors 40 mm gun for close-in combat and fire support, unlike other fast attack crafts in Malaysian service which are armed with anti-ship missiles. Peacetime duties include patrol of the exclusive economic zone, interception of illegal immigrants and anti-piracy operations.{{cite web
