The lithuanian navy has taken delivery of the two Hunt class MCMVs it acquired from the UK in April 2009. The former HMS Cottesmore and HMS Dulverton, since renamed Skalvis and Kursis, underwent an extensive 18-month regeneration project at A&P Falmouth, during which they were converted back to fully-equipped minehunters. Both vessels were used as Northern Ireland patrol vessels from 1997 until being decommissioned and laid up for disposal in 2005.
