Construction
The Sin Hung class were being built by at least 1984, and possibly before then. Although it appears possible that a non-hydrofoil Sing Hung-hulled torpedo boat could be transformed into hydrophilic ones, there has been no evidence that the Korean People's Navy have built any of them this way.[1]
