The AIRCAT Bengal MC is an optionally-crewed fast attack vessel that is ideal for a variety of naval warfare roles, including littoral strike, fleet protection, patrolling and scouting, and counter-UAS/USV/UUV. Designed to provide threat deterrence, sustained presence and rapid engagement in contested waters, it provides a cost-effective solution for building numerically credible fleets with no compromise on firepower or agility.
The versatile system can host a crew of up to seven, and can also be equipped with cutting-edge AI-powered software from Greenroom Robotics for full autonomy. It features a modular payload system that allows it to be fitted with anti-ship and long-range missiles, remote weapons stations, electronic warfare capabilities, mine laying systems, directed-energy weapons, and more.
