The Rear-Admiral Eustațiu Sebastian-class corvette (also known as the Tetal-II class by NATO) is a series of two corvettes used by the Romanian Naval Forces for Black Sea duty. They have a displacement of 1,385 tonnes, a helicopter aft, and as main armament a 76 mm gun, torpedo tubes and anti-submarine warfare rocket launchers.
These ships are updated versions of the Admiral Petre Bărbuneanu (Tetal-I)-class corvette.
Two other ships were laid down, but never finished. They are now awaiting disposal in Mangalia military harbor.
