| Source measurement | The boat owes its high-speed to its high-engine output, deep-V hull design and reduced weight thanks to its advanced composite hull. Originally designed to reach speeds up to 60 knots, the boats are fitted with two MTU 16V4000 series engines outputting 2720 kW of max power each at 2160 rpm and were capable of speeds up to 48 kn (55 mph; 89 km/h). However, they were later fitted with two interceptors for trim control, which limited their maximum speed at 45 kn (52 mph; 83 km/h). The MTU diesels are paired with waterjet propulsion system by MJP, which make the boats very maneuverable.[source]Kaan 29-class patrol craft · Lead; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage | — |
