Since 1991 the Republic of Marshall Islands Sea Patrol, a division of Marshall Islands Police, has operated the 160 ton patrol vessel RMIS ''Lomor''. ''Lomor'' is one of 22 Pacific Forum patrol vessels Australia provided to smaller nations in the Pacific Forum.  While some other nations' missions for their vessels include sovereignty, protection, the terms of the Compact of Free Association restrict ''Lomor'' to civilian missions, like fishery protection and search and rescue.
