Inshore Boat Unit 12 is a commissioned reserve unit, a part of the Naval Coastal Warfare community. IBU-12 provides waterside force protection for other United States and Allied forces utilizing the Navy's Inshore Patrol craft and highly trained crews.

Our unit is completely mobile, and can be readily deployed anywhere in the world.
