Patrol Craft - Mobility and endurance: We know just how much depends on us.

Their capabilities as flexible, rapid deployment units mean that FPBs and patrol craft have a special role to play in national security. Their tasks range from fishery protection duties, immigration surveillance and search-and-rescue assignments to vital naval deterrence and defence duties.

These duties determine the basic characteristics demanded of the propulsion plant: The highest possible reliability and availability coupled with maximum endurance.

MTU's compact and powerful diesels cover the entire profile range for this application - from regular patrol duties to assignments under extreme conditions. In addition, integration of MTU's ship's automation systems means that the propulsion system can be operated largely automatically as can other areas of the vessel up to and including entire vessel control.

Navies and coast guards around the world know they can rely on MTU.
