Design
Edenton-class was a ship class consisting of three purpose built rescue ships, where they were brought into service in the 1970s. This class of ships were succeeded by the Navajo-class, as the designation ATS-4 and 5 were not used.[1][2]
The ships were armed with two M242 Busmaster and two M2 Browning machine guns for self-defense.[2]
