Two-section bow ramp significantly simplifies the disembarkation of the military vehicles to the coast.

Air cavity cushion decreasing the water resistance is created by two centrifugal blowers with gears situated at the ship’s bottom.

Ventilated water-jets ensure high-speed and perfect maneuverability.
