List of active ships of the Colombian Navy

This article is about active ships of the Colombian Navy. For decommissioned ships, see List of decommissioned ships of the Colombian Navy.

In addition to the usual tasks of a green water navy, the Colombian Navy (Spanish: Armada de la República de Colombia - "ARC") also performs coast guard duties, has shared responsibility for patrolling the extensive Colombian network of rivers, and includes the Marine Infantry (IM). Furthermore, its littoral/riverine component is relatively large when compared with the more traditional navies of other countries.
Due to this aggregation of duties, some vessels perform routinely and indistinctly as coast guard/combat patrol, particularly those mid-size, lightly armed vessels, and can occasionally be found classified as either Surface combat or Coast Guard or even Logistics/General transport across different sources, even in official documents from the ARC itself. Also, many of the lighter patrol/harbor patrol boats may be assigned or reassigned duties across the different branches with little or no notice depending on service needs.
As the ARC has embarked in a program of modernization since 2000, a better separation and categorization of the different vessels has ensued, with many vessels being re-numbered or reclassified, which makes for occasionally conflicting references. This article tries to use the latest denominations whenever possible, but there may still be overlaps.^[1][2][3][4]

Key	Description
Role	The general role performed by the vessel; In most cases this matches with a standard type, however there are cases where the ARC may use a previously owned vessel from a specific type in a different role
Group	The general group classification used by the ARC, this matches in most cases with the formal class of the vessel, and it is used in its pennant number in the case of major units; note that the ARC may group multiple vessels of different formal classes under a single group

Patrol - Heavy	NF						The NF (Spanish: Nodriza Fluvial) group consists of a progressively improved series of boats, known as "Nodrizas" ("mothership") for armored patrol, support & re-provisioning of smaller piranha-class boats deployed from and around them. The first group of these, classified here as generic Nodriza Fluvial include a motley mix of older gunboats or armored tugs. These boats, reconditioned in their new standardized role, provided the foundations during the late 1990s and 2000s for the R&D of the PAF-series boats, for which the PAF-IV is the current state-of-the art showcase.

Patrol - Light
Patrol - Light		PAF-L					The PAF-L class (Patrullera Fluvial Ligera (in Spanish)) is an entirely new development, which takes the experiences of the heavy PAF-I-IV class and defines a lighter patrol boat.

Patrol - Light		LPR-40					The "LPR-40" (Lancha Patrullera de Rio (in Spanish) – 40 ft.) is a new and native development, which draws on the experience of the US PBR-40 boats as well as the PAF and PAF-L series to provide a midsize, light and fast boat with a strong punch.

Combat Fast Boats							These are light, fast combat patrol boats usually of fiberglass reinforced construction, outboard dual engines and fitted with additional communications and electronics. It is common for these boats to be deployed and supported from one of the larger CF/NF class vessels. As of 2003,[4] judging by the pennant/hull numbers, there was an estimated number of 167: BC-1000 to BC-1041 (41) and BT-1100 to BT-1226 (126). However, a firm number is difficult to establish due to combat and service losses, some hulls may have been rebuilt locally, as well as it is likely additional batches have been acquired, and/or added to via configuration of locally built hulls with foreign-bought higher-end components.

Light patrol	BP						The ARC has regrouped and renamed a few different classifications of light, fast boats into a single, more generic 'BP' denomination. These include from the usual light outboard harbor patrol boat, Boston-Whaler style, up to a few Midnight Express go-fast type boats used for interdiction. The exact number is difficult to determine, but judging from hull numbers, as of 2007, there were 77, from BP-421 to BP-498. It is expected that additional boats have been added.

It is possible some more boats have been added in this class, but likely not many as there haven't been major known changes in naval bases or posts recently.

Notes

1. Note that the roles Offshore patrol vs. Coastal patrol are not uniformly defined across different navies. For the purposes of this table, the OPV-heavy vessel is considered the heavier and more oceanic role, drawing the line arbitrarily at a displacement of 500 tonnes vs. the CPV-medium. Nevertheless, many CPV vessels are capable of oceanic navigation within reason, and OPV vessels are also routinely used in coastal patrol missions.
