NEW Fast Ships -- INCAT 21st Century "Joint Venture"

Incat craft have universal appeal to the military operator. The vessels offer fast transit, fast turnaround in port, flexibility and versatility in vehicle deck layout, passenger comfort, shallow draft, minimal crewing numbers and reliable and economic operation. Constructed as a base vessel or SeaFrame, in line with the aviation industry's Air Frame (the structure of an aircraft exclusive of its fittings), the craft can be fitted out for numerous purposes including passenger/commercial, freight or military deployment. Incat's 112m SeaFrame will incorporate four 20RK280 MAN B&W engines to provide the 36 megawatts required to power the vessel at speeds ranging from a heavy load economy speed of 20 knots to 50 knots light. The cargo/vehicle/mission deck provides 589 truck lane metres (TLM) plus 50 cars, or 312 cars if required for a full passenger car mode. With optional mezzanine decks even greater car capacity is possible.Vehicle deck headroom is 6.30 metres allowing stowage of Mafi trailers in the centre lanes and, with a beam of 30.20 mtres, heavy road vehicles can easily turn in the bow for quick disembarkation over stern ramps.

[hahayoufellover]

this looks like the "NORMAN ARROW" that we crossed the english channel on this summer

[BlueThunderPatriot]

Probably made by INCAT.

[darkerphantom]

are these the fast ships that were built in australia for the USN?? coz i know the yanks bought fast cats that were built in australia

[BlueThunderPatriot]

Yes.

[Yakaduce]

this was built in Alabama at an Austrialian own company called Austal. the same builders as the Failed Hawaii Superferry.

[BlueThunderPatriot]

No it was bulit by Bollinger who has an agreement with INCAT of Australia. If you take a close look at an Austrail ship [1] it doesnt have the ocean going Hydrofiol, [2] it's only 21 meters beam and [3] its a fine ship but id didn't win the world oceangoing challange like INCAT.

Cheesy narrator.

[Zygon2004]

Not to worry. Obama is printing more!

[69sexdemon69]

BUILT BY INCAT AN AUSTRALIAN COMPANY BASED IN TASMANIA! NOT ANY US COMPANY! ugh.. If it works and is great it has to be made in the US... grr idiots

[69sexdemon69]

Few US companies have any Experiance with Catamarans, And as far as i know, INCAT, Austal, and General Dynamics are the only ones with experiance with military applications, With INCAT having the most experiance.. When comes down the Military applications for Catamarans, Australia is the best.

Used 74 meter older conversion with new configuration about $20+mil I priced one to be used as a floating casino for a Native Nation.

Armor you haven't seen armor and to that M134's, Aegis, A Rail Gun and Tommahawk Cruise missles and youv'e got one booty phat SCUD buster.

[BlueThunderPatriot]

Sadly enough not all Military Directorate appreciates this technology....that is until a bunch of old ass Naval ships get blown out of the water. Then as damage control & CYA these ships will be pressed into service. Sadly it woun't ease the greiving families of the dead!

[BlueThunderPatriot]

This video was intended for actuation purposes only, believe me when they are armored the U.S. won't use bird cage.

We're in the modern age of reactive armor which can be redilly applied as needed for diferent wartime applications.

[BlueThunderPatriot]

Hey Dude!

You don't realize how many American lives will be saved by this new technology. While your bitching about it terroists and warlords are thinking of more ways to kill Americans every day. That includes "Assholes in America" that would let our freedoms get taken away because they can't of won't defend them!
