From 19 to 23 June Baglietto Navy will be taking part in SEAFUTURE 2018

Baglietto Navy, the military division of the historical shipyard based in La Spezia, Italy, is taking part in SEAFUTURE 2018, the event devoted to marine and naval technologies in the civil and defence sectors, which this year is being held from 19 to 23 June at the Military Dockyard of La Spezia.

Baglietto Navy will be present with a stand and will display the FFC15, the first patrol boat built by the shipyard since its acquisition by the Gavio Group. This 15 m aluminium boat can ensure outstanding performances and be used as a landing craft, a fast attack craft, for police actions, patrolling, logistic and rescue operations. It is a multipurpose naval platform specifically designed to ensure the utmost flexibility and efficiency in any and all scenarios thanks to a wide range of custom solutions both in terms of propulsion (water jet, shaft Line, surface drive & stern drive are all available options) and with regard to interior and exterior fittings. Indeed, the FFC15 stands out for its great versatility, since it can be used as a patrol boat, a missile launcher, and ambulance boat or an amphibious craft for the fire brigade. A drone version is also currently being developed.

Impressive speed performances (the boat can reach a maximum speed of 45 knots) and easy maneuverability are the main features of this project, and – together with its limited draught (0.80 m) – make the FFC15 ideal for both landing operations and river navigation.
