Littoral Mission Ship Batch 2 or LMSB2 is a future class of three corvettes being acquired by the Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) to fulfill the 15 to 5 fleet modernization program. The LMSB2 will be based on the Ada-class corvette in service with the Turkish Navy.[3] The LMSB2 program is a continuation of the Littoral Mission Ship Batch 1 or LMSB1 program which saw the introduction of Keris-class littoral mission ship into the RMN's inventory.[4]
