The L-CAT Sea to shore connector
     
CNIM’s landing catamaran L-CAT is a rapid and innovative amphibious craft compliant with all NATO well decks. Thanks to its large autonomy, it is the ideal sea base connector for modern “over the horizon” amphibious operations.

Four L-CAT are currently in service within the French Navy. In 2012, it performed conclusive trials with US Navy vessels during Bold Alligator exercise.

L-CAT is intended for landing an infantry platoon, vehicles and equipment from any modern LPD/LHD. With itsfore and aft ramps, L-CAT is a full Ro-Ro vessel allowing door to door operations and loading/unloading from any existing slipway or quay.
