IMDEX 2019: ST Engineering Unveils Super Swift Range of Fast Patrol Boats

At IMDEX Asia 2019, ST Engineering unveiled the Super Swift range of Ultra High Speed Fast Patrol Boats able to reach speeds up to 70 knots.

Xavier Vavasseur 14 May 2019

The Super Swift series is a range of ultra-high speed Fast Patrol Boats (FPB) designed for interdiction, interception and patrolling.  Customised for military and law enforcement applications, each FPB features an Air Cavity Hull (ACH) that enables the craft to reach high speeds of up to 70 knots, depending on the craft size.

Significant improvements in ride and crew comfort levels are key characteristics of Super Swift – ACH series, with reduced ship motions and acceleration.  Users will enjoy exceptionally high seakeeping and survivability abilities with this new series of vessels which is best suited for very high speed activities such as pursuit and arrest, search and rescue, offshore patrolling and escort, surveillance and covert surveillance, as well as border patrol.
