Patrol special vessel OOB-31 Omiš

coastal

The introduction of the coastal patrol vessel (CPV) into operational service presents another project modernization and development of new capacities of the Croatian Navy. CPV is based on the technologies, methods, and experiences of the proven designs used by the Croatian Navy for past decades. Smaller patrol ships are known to be more efficient than the large ones. All design phases are made in Croatian companies (tactical study, feasibility study, initial design, model tests, basic design, and workshop design). The adaptable design is well suited to the export market and can be changed according to individual customer needs, ensuring they can meet the operational requirements of navies around the world. One remotely operated stabilized 30 mm naval gun system, installed on the main deck forward at the centerline, ensuring a wide field of gun action. Such configurations incorporate advanced features as remote operation, a built-in electro-optic sensor system for autonomous operation, day and night operation, stabilized turret, automatic target tracking (detect, track and fire on the move) and ballistic computation. Stabilized turret enables the line-of-sight of the gun to be aimed at the target at all times. Due to the stabilization feature, the system can perform precise firings against stationary or moving targets while the platform is on-the-move. Two 360° pedestals for 12.7 mm machine gun (of M2HB type, e.g.), situated starboard and portside on the superstructure, ensuring a wide field of gun action with the same level of protection assured by open bridge wing structure.
