| 摘要： | MetalCraft Marine, Water-town, N.Y., was recently awarded a second contract from the Coast Guard for the third generation of long-range interceptor boats (LRI III). Long range means 200 NM. MetalCraft has made many incremental improvements to the design based on input from Coast Guard crews around the U.S. Improvements include a finer bow entry, improved collar design by Wing, window and door improvements for better egress/ ingress, full walk-around cabin, higher thrust jets, redundant bucket controls, redundant sea water systems, independent crew heating and other small yet extremely important details, according to MetalCraft partner Bob Clark. "The 11-meter LRI Ⅱ has been a very successful platform for the Coast Guard," Clark said. "The LRI was the first design to successfully navigate the recovery bay at the transom of the 418' national security cutter. The LRI can operate over the horizon from the mother ship and can travel 236 nautical miles on any given mission on plane giving it a very wide swath to patrol after the mother ship's electronics have detected something suspicious." |
