DSB 470 Inflatable Rescue Boat

Enhanced Capacity and Manoeuvrability for Maritime Rescue Operations

The DSB 470 Inflatable Rescue Boat is engineered for enhanced performance in critical rescue and operational scenarios. Built from ultra-light Hypalon fabric, this boat ensures durability, manoeuvrability, and ease of transport, making it ideal for rapid-response situations. With a deep V-shaped inflatable keel and reinforced Hypalon seams, the DSB 470 delivers superior stability and control, even in rough seas.

This boat features a larger internal deck space, allowing for greater capacity and increased buoyancy. It can be customised with wooden or aluminium floorboards to suit specific operational needs, while its lightweight design facilitates easier transport and launching. Equipped with all standard safety equipment, the DSB 470 is the go-to solution for defence and commercial marine organisations requiring a reliable and efficient rescue platform.

Performance

When underwater emergencies occur, a trusted, proven partner is essential. Our submarine escape and abandonment systems are engineered for precision, speed, and survivability, delivering reliable performance under extreme pressure and time-critical conditions. From deep escape scenarios to surface evacuation, they enable rapid, controlled responses when it matters most.

Innovation

We are continually advancing our submarine escape and abandonment capabilities to meet the evolving demands of naval operations. Through new material sciences, technological innovation and strategic partnerships, we push the boundaries of survivability — developing solutions that set new standards in performance, integration and reliability beneath the surface.

Protection

Sub-surface emergencies demand absolute confidence in protective systems. Our escape and abandonment solutions are designed to safeguard submariners from depth to recovery, delivering thermal insulation, flotation, and life-support performance under the harshest conditions. Proven through rigorous testing, they provide the protection needed when submariner survival is the priority.
