   As for how to search on wiki try Vietnam era US Navy "Patrol Boat River" (PBR)

   Abt two yr ago several mfgrs were offering RTR versions of this style. Including ProBoat if memory serves. They were all $$$ so I held off at the time. Now that I can afford $400 I can't find any on the primary market. Perhaps they were all snapped up by persons that we shud "thank for their service".
   
   What title of a Wikipedia article wud describe these gunboats? I'm extremely ignorant of the US military so hav no idea how to start a search in the wiki.
   
   Speaking of 3D-printed hulls, a gent in my club gifted me a Clyde puffer that he had 3D-printed in sections. I'm thankful for it as my 1st love is workboats.
   
   I do not enjoy plank-on-frame hull construction e.g. the DUMAS PT-109

   A magnificent effort Rover👍
   I don't want to even think about the programming effort that went into that.🤕
   Which CAD and slicer programs did you use?
   
   It was immediately apparent that the boat was 3D printed😉
   Can you give us some dimensions and info on the printer used; filament, nozzle, temp etc please.
   Are you going to smooth the parts with acetone or Dichloromethane before painting?
   NOTE to wise: use the latter only outside/in well ventilated area with an FFP2 or preferably 3 mask!!!
   Cheers, Doug😎
