    Roster entry ‘P14 - Penedo’
    Finding type
    historical_record
    Finding
    The Brazilian Navy's official Piratini-class roster search result identifies Penedo as P-14. Direct access to the roster URL returned HTTP 403 during this research session, so the underlying page could not be reviewed; the result is retained as an archival lead, not as fully verified hull-number evidence. The supplied identifier PGM-120 was not verified.

    Limitations
    The Navy roster URL returned HTTP 403 on 2026-10-04; the P-14 text came from the official search-result excerpt rather than page text reviewed directly. The identifier should be rechecked when direct access is available. This source provides no construction dates, technical details, or asbestos information.

    Limitations
    This is a bounded negative finding about the specific official pages reviewed, not proof that asbestos is absent. The ship history is not a hazardous-material survey, and records outside the pages searched may exist. It does not establish or defeat exposure, causation, or legal eligibility.
