They are armed with four MM38 Exocet anti-ship missiles, 76 mm/62 OTO Melara dual purpose gun, two DARDO twin 40 mm AA guns, two .50 cal machine guns, and two triple 324 mm ILAS-3 tubes.

ARA Ciudad de Rosario (Q-62) is a multi-purpose auxiliary ship of the Argentine Navy based at Puerto Madero, Buenos Aires. It was formerly USCGC Red Wood (WLM-685).

The auxiliary ship has a length of 49.05 m (160 ft 11 in), a beam of 10 m (32 ft 10 in), and a draft of 2 m (6 ft 7 in). She can reach a top speed of 12.6 knots (23.3 km/h; 14.5 mph).
