Textron Marine model LCAC, for 25 max 180 places 15.820 shp

A unique and irreplaceable integrating element of the amphibious fleet.

Our Landing Craft with Air Cushion (LCAC) is the cornerstone of the programme for the modernisation of the amphibious vehicles of the United States and is a revolutionary vehicle for amphibious operations, capable of landing on over 70% of the world’s coastlines.

As shown in successful operations in Bangladesh, Liberia, Haiti and Kuwait, the LCAC is also suitable in the event of rescue operations following tidal waves and flooding.

The LCAC can travel over snow, swamps, ice, tundra, desert and sand. Travelling at 50 knots with sea conditions of 2, the LCAC has 350 miles’ autonomy maintaining 20% of its fuel reserves.

It is also important to point out that on land it can easily overcome barricades and obstacles up to four feet high.

Designed to function at extreme temperatures, the LCAC tolerates climates varying from the cold of the Artic to the heat of the Sahara. Whether operating on the bridge or an amphibious cargo ship, in the middle of the waves or inland, the LCAC is able to provide performances which cannot be compared with any other existing vehicle.
