Patrol special vessel FAC

trimaranhigh-speed

GENERAL DISCRIPTION The Fast Attack Craft (FAC) employs a modern “Wave Piercing” trimaran design. This allows the vessel to cut-through waves rather than rise up and over them, and the increased beam provides inherent stability. This combination of features reduces both pitching and rolling, creating a stable weapons platform, and enabling the vessel to comfortably and safely maintain higher average speeds in adverse conditions. The FAC has “Stealth” design characteristics, and incorporate features that minimise detection by reducing Radar, Infra-Red, Acoustic and Magnetic signatures. Stealth properties are further improved as there are no reverse-angle bow overhangs to reflect radar signals, as seen on conventional hull forms. Weaponry, including missiles and naval guns, and the ships 11 m high-speed RHIB, are discreetly concealed or shaped to meld into the superstructure profile The wide decks on the 63m FAC Trimaran also make it an ideal platform for carrying a helicopter, which extends the effective patrol range and capabilities of the vessel General Basic Functions : Naval Patrol EEZ Anti Piracy Search and Rescue, Surveilance Hull Material: Carbon Fibre Foam Sandwich, Resin infused used osmosis résistant fire résistant vinyl ester resin.
