Design and construction

Шаблон:Main The Paluma-class vessels have a full load displacement of 320 tonnes.[1] They are Шаблон:Convert long overall and Шаблон:Convert long between perpendiculars, have a beam of Шаблон:Convert, and a draught of Шаблон:Convert.[1] Propulsion machinery consists of two General Motors Detroit Diesel 12V-92T engines, which supply Шаблон:Convert to the two propeller shafts.[1] Each vessel has a top speed of Шаблон:Convert, a maximum sustainable speed of Шаблон:Convert (which gives a maximum range of Шаблон:Convert), and an endurance of 14 days.[1]

The sensor suite of a Paluma-class launch consists of a JRC JMA-3710-6 navigational radar, an ELAC LAZ 72 side-scan mapping sonar, and a Skipper 113 hull-mounted scanning sonar.[1] The vessels are unarmed.[1] The standard ship's company consists of three officers and eleven sailors, although another four personnel can be accommodated.[1] The catamarans were originally painted white, but were repainted naval grey in 2002.[1]

Benalla was laid down by Eglo Engineering, on 25 November 1988, was launched on 31 January 1990, and commissioned into the RAN on 20 March 1990.[1] The ship was named for the city of Benalla, Victoria.
