Amphibious Hovercraft "Patrol" AS for Versatile Water and Land Transport

Externally "Patrol" resembles a small boat: smooth contours of the bottom, transparent lantern and ship lights. Only the motor with an aircraft propeller and air rudders installed in the aft part says that you are looking at an aerosled. But, looking more closely, you can notice that the bottom coating is not solid, but consists of cross plates made of high-strength polyethylene.

Directly under them are ten longitudinal cylinders equipped with automatic inflation. They are designed, firstly, to play the role of an elastic element of the "suspension" of the aerobot, and secondly, to create an additional reserve. The body of the "boat" of the aerosled is made of durable fibreglass.

On top of it there is a protective lantern made of unbreakable polycarbonate, providing the crew of the "Patrol" with a more than sufficient field of view.Behind the seats are two upward-opening doors for entry and exit, and the aft side of the cab is covered with a removable waterproof awning.
