ASIS RIB vessel in transit
ASIS' RIBs can be used in the shallowest water depths, making them ideal as both rapid deployment attack craft, and river patrol craft (where water depth can vary dramatically).
ASIS travelling at high speed
ASIS hulls are scalloped, forcing the water to spray down onto itself, minimising the boats drag whilst traveling at high speed.
ASIS vessel cornering at high speeds
Its surface-effect hull enables the ASIS boat to make high-speed turns and prevent rough sea conditions; skilled boatmen can thus drive it hard without fear of submerging the bow
ASIS vessel passing a city skyline
The design of the ASIS hull provides a very dry ride as the spray from the concave chimes is thrown out at a low angle, keeping the crew dry.
ASIS vessel cornering at high speeds
ASIS boats have exceptional high load-carrying capacity in excess of 1.5t, with the ability to run continuously at speeds of 100km/h in 1m seas.
