Auk-class minesweeper equipment records. Variants, orders and quantities are shown as reported in each inventory source; coverage is incomplete.
Navy exact named Valle (US Auk MSF) equipment holdings under PATROL AND COASTAL COMBATANTS, PCO. Active, operational-reserve and training units excluding equipment in store; November 2025 IISS assessment. This is the named service only, not a national or parent-force total, factory production, ordered future units or combat-readiness measure. Weapons per vessel, crews, payloads and capacity counts are excluded. The literal PDF PCO9 is the disjoint six plain and three hel-platform configurations of the same explicitly named US Auk/Valle class. Own article reports at least two in service in February2026, a later lower bound rather than a dated complete census; no generic Valle/Reliance substitution.
