What kind of propulsion system does the RB-M 45 utilize?

The RB-M 45 utilizes a water-jet propulsion system, which is specifically designed to provide enhanced maneuverability and speed in a variety of water conditions. Water-jet propulsion systems work by drawing in water from underneath the vessel and expelling it through a nozzle at the back, allowing for high thrust and quick direction changes. This makes the RB-M 45 particularly effective for its intended roles in search and rescue, law enforcement, and other missions requiring rapid response and agility.

The advantages of a water-jet system include a shallow draft, which allows the vessel to navigate in shallower waters without risk of damage to the propulsion components and increased safety as there are no exposed propellers that could pose a hazard to personnel or marine life. This type of propulsion is especially beneficial in coastal areas and rivers, where navigating tight spaces and quick turns is often necessary.
