RESCUE AIRFOIL BOAT Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC B60V1/08 B60V3/08 B64C39/02 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to marine aircrafts and concerns airfoil boats used in search and rescue operations. The rescue airfoil boat is triple-hulled vessel and contains three fuselages-hulls interconnected by rectangular wings. The central fuselage-hull is advanced. Outer fuselages-hulls in their tail ends are provided with ramps, and deck is provided with rolling track. Lowering and lifting devices for launching and lifting underwater vehicle are made as hydraulic unit. On the airfoil boat automated integrated navigation system is installed including hydrometeorological data module, echo sounder, combined indicator made as electronic cartographic navigational data system, altimeter made as low-range radio altimeter with functions of airfoil boat movement altitude meter and sea disturbance parameters meter. Search facilities include parametric echo-ranging sonar, horizontal- and vertical-scan searchlight sonar the transceiving antennas of which are located in the forebody of outer fuselages-hulls, hydroacoustic parametric profile recorder located in the forebody of central fuselage-hull.

EFFECT: improvement of operational performance, safety and reliability of search and rescue operations.
