The winged Orion – passenger ship designed for year-round operation.
The winged Orion – passenger ship designed for year-round operation on large rivers, lakes, reservoirs and coastal sea waters. The winged Orion moves over a relatively smooth hard surface (ice, tundra, steppe…) and performs the deployment on the grounds and at special piers. The winged Orion are equipped with a system of small stroke for the movement in displacement mode, maneuvering in ports.

Description:
The winged Orion – passenger ship designed for year-round operation on large rivers, lakes, reservoirs and coastal marine waters. The winged Orion moves over a relatively smooth solid surface (ice, tundra, steppe…) and performs the deployment on the grounds and at special piers. It has a setting of slow speed for the movement in displacement mode, maneuvering in ports.
The winged Orion is one of the series – Orion-20 and has the following modifications:
– ship-ekranoplan emergency medical care and sanitary evacuation,
– a vehicle to support the activities of the emergency services, search and survey parties,
– rescue the ship, including for underwater emergency operations,
– patrol vessel for GIMS, environmental monitoring, NBC reconnaissance, control of gas and oil pipelines, cleanup of spills of petroleum products and other hazardous substances
– the hovercraft-wig VIP, mobile command post,
– special projects for the law-enforcement agencies.
The winged Orion, like all lasting two times cheaper than airplanes, and the ticket is on them, as on the intercity bus.
Design features of the Orion wig-20:
– folding wing (lifting wing);
– apparel rear entrance;
– open architecture and modular principle of recruitment on-Board equipment;
– download universal transport containers;
– implementation of amphibious modes.
