UAE Navy boats manufactured locally
Corvettes
The Baynunah Corvettes are a unique class of warship with multi-mission capabilities, including coastal patrol and surveillance, mine detection and avoidance, helicopter operations, as well as anti-air and anti-surface capabilities. In performing these missions, Baynunah will utilize the very latest in weapons and sensor technology
Operational requirements.
The ship is designed to provide the Navies with a multi-role surface vessel capable of sustained operations throughout the GCC region. The vessels are designed to conduct peacetime patrols in their territorial waters and exclusive economic zones, together with surveillance, maritime interdiction, support to other forces, and the protection of coastline and ports.
Construction:
Steel constructed hull and deck, with superstructure fabricated from aluminium. Superstructure arrangement designed to minimise radar cross-section.
General description of Combat System:
The combat system is centred around a modern command and control system. The IPN-S will provide primary control of the major weapons systems while providing the ship's crew with a complete tactical picture combining information from ship's sensors, external communications, airborne sensors, and intelligence reports.
Primary ship sensors will include a three dimensional air search and a navigation radar with LPI capability. An EOMS infrared search and track weapons director will also be fitted. A Interrogation Friend or Foe (IFF) function for both radar sets will be provided.
The electronic warfare suite will include laser electronics countermeasures systems, a radar electronic support measures system (ESM) and a electronic support measures and communications intelligence system will also be a part of the electronics warfare suite.
The primary anti ship weapons will be 2 x Missiles. The vessel's firepower is complimented with a single 76 mm main gun and two 27 mm side guns.
The primary air defence system is centred on a vertical missile launcher system. This system will be controlled by the IPN-S combat control system a fire control system. Missile fire control will be supplemented by a continuous wave illuminator. The air defence missile system is augmented by a second set of surface to air missiles. These "fire and forget" missiles will be mounted on the weather fairing of the 27mm side guns.
All navigation system data will be collected and displayed through an Integrated Bridge system incorporating a laser gyro system for ship's reference and navigation. The integrated bridge system will include displays from the Navigation / LPI radar.
A complex network of integrated communications is provided and will include secure voice and data communications. This system will coordinate and provide communications and data sharing between the Baynunah vessels, other cooperating fleet vessels, land based command and control centres, and maritime patrol aircraft.
The vessel will also be fitted with a CHAFF launcher decoy system and RAM system.

Fast patrol boats
Fast patrol boats from 10m to 70m for specific missions and also as multi role vessels. Vessels can be built in steel, aluminium alloy and the latest Composite materials - and with speeds capable of in excess of 60 knots, these vessels cater for all naval / military missions. Weapons fit are determined by the end user / operator, and vessels built at Abu Dhabi Ship Building have been fitted with remote controlled guns, surface to surface missiles, surface to air missiles mortars, and an array of sensors and communication suites
---------------------------------------------
Landing Craft
Similar vessels are in service with the UAE Navy associated Military operators and Royal Navy of Oman. They are built to the high naval standards associated with all production at ADSB and have proven in service operational sea time. The heavy duty steel construction and cargo deck layout makes them ideally suited to the deployment of Vehicles, Troops, Equipment, Fuel and Water. The Bow Ramp is designed for use during amphibious operations allowing the fast discharge of vehicles and men onto a beach area. Full air conditioned accommodation is provided for the compliment of 19 officers and crew. The vessel has a Dead Weight capacity of up to 700 Tonnes, a speed of approximately 10.5 knots (at 500 Tonnes DWT), a Cargo Deck area of 400 square metres and a side loading facility allowing easy access for equipment to be loaded from an alongside jetty.
---------------------------------------------
Assault Boats
High Speed (50 Knots), 9.5M Aluminium Assault Boats provide effective interception and policing for coastline duty.
These boats feature a heavy duty, high-impact,all-weather, polymer-covered solid foam collar in case boarding is necessary, state-of-the-art Navigation/Communication equipment and two gun mounts for 360 degree coverage.Constructed from Aluminuim, these boats have a top speed of 50 knots from two 250HP Outboard Mercury engines.
---------------------------------------------
Fast Supply Vessel
Construction of highly complex naval ships including the integration of weapon combat systems. These vessels are primarily designed for littoral warfare defence operations against air and surface threats as well as patrol tasks, coast guard, law enforcement, electronic search missions, fishery and EEZ protection. Our range includes Corvette Class Vessels, Missile Strike Craft and Fast Patrol Boats, Landing Craft & Logistic Support Ships as well as a variety of high speed Troop Carriers, Interceptors and Assault Boats. Construction materials used in the build of the above vessels includes Steel, Marine Grade Aluminium Alloy and Composites.
---------------------------------------------
Fast Troop carrier
Specially designed to be highly maneuverable at all speeds and capable for very shallow waters operations. The main mission of the Fast Troop Carrier is to deploy troops directly onto a beachhead via a hydraulically operated bow ramp.
The vessel is designed according to the specification below and based on the Swedish Navy's and UAE Navy's "Fast Troop Carrier" design with amendments required to meet the Medium Range Patrol Boat operational requirement.
The vessels will be generally constructed in accordance with DNV rules for high speed craft where applicable. The Hull, Deck and Superstructure including Bulkheads and Frames are in accordance with Det Norske Veritas rules for the classification of High Speed and Light Craft, issued 2002. The original vessel design and construction was also in accordance with the Swedish Naval regulations RMS (Regulation Marine Ship). In addition, the major equipment specified herein, where available, is type approved by DNV or similar class society. The vessel is powered by twin MTU diesel engines coupled to Rolls Royce FF550 waterjets to give a vessel top speed in excess of 35 knots.
Apart from it's mission as a fast troop carrier - the vessel is also to be in service as a missile boat, gun boat and mortar boat.
