Once again, the Sillinger company delivers 5 RHIBs for the FUSCO (French Fusiliers Commandos Marine). These fast 6,50m long RHIBs are equipped with a 150hp engine allowing a +40 kts top speed. The Ullman shock absorber seats make long navigations comfortable reducing physical fatigue, and the bow is able to receive a collective weapon.

These boats, which main purpose is facilities surveillance, also have as mission personnel defence in France and in overseas operations. These new deliveries outline the setting of the contract with the SSF Toulon (Service de Soutien de la Flotte) and complete the existing fleet: 12 similar boats at FUSCO, 21 at Gendarmerie Maritime and 2 managed by the Force d’Action Navale.
