Configuration and equipment[]
Her length, beam, and depth are 98 metres (321 ft 6 in), 15.2 metres (49 ft 10 in), and 7.8 metres (25 ft 7 in), respectively. Her maximum speed is 18 knots (33 km/h; 21 mph); her displacement is 3,980 metric tons (3,920 long tons); and her range is 10,000 nautical miles (19,000 km; 12,000 mi).
She can carry a helicopter on a helipad or in a hangar. The default helicopter model is Harbin Z-9.
She has an electrical propulsion system that relies on propellers instead of a rudder for changing direction. Auxiliary propellers give her the capability to rotate in place. She is equipped with a dynamic positioning system that can hold its position even under the conditions of a level 7 wind speed on the Beaufort scale. The vessel carries an onboard desalination system.[3]
