Amphibious Craft - Click any image below for more information.
Amphibious craft have the ability to operate on water or on land. Advantages of amphibious craft include rapid deployment and retrieval from land to water plus transition of the littoral zone. Amphibious capability can be added to existing marine craft hulls or to existing land vehicle chassis. Typical designs incorporate a planing hull form on water with wheels or tracks that enable the craft to move across land, including the ability to operate on gradients and uneven surfaces particularly when entering or leaving the water. PWC / quad bike size vehices have potential for high mobility in search & rescue or para-military operations.
