Today’s feature highlights the U.S. Navy’s powerful Riverine Command Boat (RCB) — a fast, heavily armed vessel built for dominance in coastal and riverine environments. Designed for high-speed operations, the RCB excels in patrol, escort, and interdiction missions where agility and firepower are essential. Equipped with advanced communications systems, radar, and remote weapon stations, it allows crews to coordinate with naval and ground forces in real time. The boat’s rugged hull and shallow draft enable it to navigate tight waterways while maintaining stability and protection for its crew. During live exercises, RCBs demonstrate their versatility by performing rapid assaults, reconnaissance runs, and maritime security missions — proving their vital role in littoral warfare and naval special operations.
