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.
