    Before or after those destroyed recently?!



    NAVY - STRENGTH ON PAPER

    Numbers: 8,000 including coast guard.

    Submarines - 2 patrol submarines.

    Surface vessels - 3

    Patrol and coastal ships - 14

    NAVY - REALITY

    Libya's two surviving Foxtrot class diesel submarines were delivered by the Soviet Union in the late 1980s, but outside experts have long questioned their reliability. According to IHS Jane's, in 2003 one was reported to be in dry dock and one was sea going -- although unlikely to be fully operational. It suggested both might already have been abandoned.
