Key features

The concept originated with IMAA Ltd and was developed into a detailed design by QinetiQ; it is intended for fast deployment of high payloads onto a beach from an amphibious assault ship.
- Self-propelled hoverbarges: platforms carrying 30 to 300 tonnes into shallow water, soft ground and ice, with marine grade aluminium hulls, diesel powered lift and segmented skirts.
- Oil rig ice support hovercraft for oil exploration in ice-prone Arctic waters.
