PT Lundin revealed its newest product the X-33 Light Strike Boat and Unmanned Surface Vessel at the ongoing Indo Defence 2022 show.
The Indonesian privately-owned shipyard is highlighting the X-33 which was based on the requirements from the Indonesian Navy (TNI AL) for a fast strike boat armed with anti-ship missiles. The requirements also call for the ability to fit multiple boats inside the well deck of the Makassar-class LPDs of the Indonesian Navy.
Armed with a pair of Naval Strike Missiles (NSMs), the boat is powered by two 2,000 HP diesel engines driving a pair of waterjets. It can reach a maximum speed of 50 knots, a cruise speed of up to 30 knots, and a range of 990 km with 9 knots cruising speed.
PT Lundin exp]ects that the first prototype of the boat is expected to be launched in the next 18 months.
