Sana'a (2601) and Aden (2602) are two patrol vessels built at Bollinger Shipyards for the Coast Guard of Yemen.[1][2][3] The vessels use the same design as the United States Coast Guard's Marine Protector-class cutters.

US vessels are, in turn, based on the Damen Stan 2600, designed by Damen Group.[4]
