The Intrépida class is a class of fast attack craft that was built by Lürssen for the Argentine Navy in the early 1970s. The ships are based on Lürssen's TNC 45 design.
As of 2021 Intrépida was reported active and participated in a sea exercise with the destroyer Sarandi, the corvettes Espora, Spiro, Robinson and Gómez Roca and with aircraft from Argentine naval aviation. [1] [2]
Both vessels were reported active on exercises in 2022. [3]
