Multi-missions by their modularity, these crafts are currently intended for the surveillance of military ports
but also for the monitoring of other strategic points and ships.

The boats are equipped with 7 seated places including 2 Ullman seats suspended on shock-absorbers. These very reactive, semi-rigid craft are capable of reaching 40 knots under load.

To increase the safety of the crew, the boats are equipped on the bow with a weapon support for adding a
7.62 calibre machine-gun. A fastening system on rails allows the crew to place, move or eliminate seats, coffers and the machine-gun bracket to adapt to each mission.

Having great reliability, the 650 RIB UM has a high rate of availability due to its low maintenance needs.
