PARIS-Thursday 25 October 2018 [ AETOS Wire ]
(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The L-CAT® Shore-to-shore presented by CNIM at Euronaval 2018
delivers a major increase in performance for amphibious missions. The
L-CAT® Shore-to-shore has been upgrated since its launch 2 years ago.
The
L-CAT® Shore-to-shore is now the only vessel with the ability to
transport 80 tonnes at 25 knots in conditions up to sea state 5, land in
shallow water (~1m) and accommodate 42 passengers for long distance
trips.
Highly maneuvrable, the L-CAT® Shore-to-shore provides exceptional operational flexibility for amphibious assaults and humanitarian operations, without compromising between speed and payload.
Its wide loading platform (145 m²), ability to travel up to 800
nautical miles when loaded, self-defence and communication capabilities
are tactical advantages for the projection of Forces.
Its speed of 35 knots unloaded allows for the theatre of operations to
be cleared rapidly via fast rotations.
As with all CNIM amphibious crafts, the L-CAT® Shore-to-shore is able to deploy semi-rigid boats and underwater robots for beach reconnaissance.
