The Combat Support Boat is a powerful and versatile craft whose major role is to support both bridging and amphibious operations. It can also be used as a general purpose working boat in support of diving operations, ship to shore re-supply and inland water patrols. The use of water jet propulsion allows high thrust at shallow draught. 3, record 2, English, - combat%20support%20boat
