SB90N, a variation of Sweden's Stridsbåt 90 H, but upgraded significantly compared to Swedish boats (different engines to allow them better shallow water performance, newer electronics and countermeasures, remote weapon stations, and a few structural differences to improve crew and passenger comfort). Internationally they're known as CB90, while the Americans call the type Riverine Command Boats. The UK trialed four Swedish boats, but ultimately decided not to pursue them for its special operations forces. The boats in Norwegian service belong to the Coastal Ranger Command and are used for fast boat interdiction, coastal patrol, search and seizure and covert infiltrations.
