Impressive Hellenic Navy RIBs
The Hellenic Navy Special Forces deployed Hellraiser 44 RIBs (Rigid Inflatable Boats). These boats were near the northwest Chios island landing beach. This deployment was part of the large-scale national military exercise Parmenion 2018.
The Hellraiser 44 Rib was studied and designed exclusively by Motomarine. It is intended for military use. The design uses the latest developments in naval architecture science and technology.
During her design the naval architecture test tank of NTUA (National Technical University of Athens) was used.
