G12<\/strong> is built for demanding operations where speed, reliability, and carrying capacity matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At 11.65 metres long, it is the largest and most powerful model in Northstar&#8217;s G Series, built in Turkey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its stepped hull is designed to deliver efficient high-speed performance while maintaining control in challenging sea conditions<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a maximum engine rating of 1,050 hp, the G12 can accommodate up to 17 people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hull and deck use vacuum-infused GRP construction, while the Hypalon tubes feature eight separate air chambers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Operators can configure the G12 for military missions, maritime security, patrol duties, search and rescue, or professional workboat operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Available options include twin or triple outboard installations, suspension seats, advanced navigation electronics, thermal cameras, radar, and ballistic protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The result is a versatile professional RIB that can be adapted to different operational requirements without compromising its focus on performance and functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr
