BRP Rizal (PS-74) was the lead ship and first of two Rizal-class ships in service with the Philippine Navy. She was an ex-United States Navy Auk-class minesweeper that was produced during World War II, and was classified as a patrol corvette protecting the vast waters of the Philippines. Along with other ex-World War II veteran ships of the Philippine Navy, she was considered one of the oldest active fighting ships in the world,[3] until 2020.
