Distinctive features
The ship is intended to break ice and to provide shipping canals in rivers, water-storage ponds, in coastal (including shallow areas) sea areas, in water areas of ports and in harbor basins of yards; to cut away ice at drilling rigs bases and to provide canals to the drilling rigs for the supply ships.
The icebreaking platform is a non-self-propelled air-cushion amphibious ship. The platform can be operated by a tug boat, an ice breaker or other push boat.
The platform can be operated at temperature of down to -40°С. The power plant is remotely controlled and monitored from the central control station.
