K5 Kraken is the definitive built-for-purpose, high-performance littoral gunship, capable of rapid solo or swarmed force projection in defence of littoral assets, protection of expeditionary battle groups or networked into a ship-to-shore system of systems.
Inspired by the efficacy of the heavily-weaponised, swarm-based, planing powerboats of the WW2 era, the K5 KRAKEN is every inch the spiritual successor to the renowned Motor Torpedo Boat, Motor Gun Boat and PT Boat-type craft. Engineered from the keel up as a fully integrated weapons platform to exceed anything currently available, the K5 KRAKEN simply delivers more performance, more effective strike capability and more mission-specific customisation. This combination of innovative engineering, diligent naval architecture and technology-enhanced operational capability makes the KRAKEN equally effective in both deterrent and effector roles.
