Public summary
Canadian Coast Guard air cushion vehicles support ice, flood, shallow-water and difficult-terrain response tasks. Their hovercraft capability lets crews operate where ordinary vessels or road vehicles may be blocked by ice, mudflats or flooding. They are response and access platforms rather than naval landing craft.
