Menawethan’s hydraulic power system

Armada Engineering arrived to oversee the setup and commissioning of the vessel’s hydraulic power system. As part of this phase, the team successfully completed a test run of the tunnel thrusters, marking an important milestone and a clear sign of progress since her late-October launch. Visible on the bow in pre-launch images, the tunnel thrusters are installed within a transverse tunnel and provide lateral thrust, significantly enhancing maneuverability during low-speed and close-quarters operations.
