Design
The boats are made of aluminum. The new design of the Response Boat-Small focuses more crew protection and comfort over the past TPSBs. To achieve this they have greater protection due to the use of ballistic panels to allow the crew to continue to perform their missions even if fired upon. Comforts improvements come in the use of shock mitigating seats, and better stability. The boats can be transported by plane, or by vehicle with a trailer.
