INCREASED ICE CLASS

The ice reinforcements of the Arc6 class vessel allow navigation in the Arctic in the summer-autumn period in sparse first-year ice up to 1.3 m thick and in the winter-spring period in the Arctic in sparse first-year ice up to 1.1 m thick

UNLIMITED AREA AND LONG RANGE

The unlimited navigation area allows the operation of the vessel both in the Arctic and Antarctic waters, and the performance of expeditionary cruises to any part of the world.
