Jurmo-luokka (Jurmo-class) – Finnish Navy Landing Craft

The Jurmo-luokan (Jurmo-class) is one of the most capable amphibious landing craft in Northern European service, purpose-built for the Finnish Navy in the late 1990s to transport Finnish Coastal Jaegers through the demanding conditions of the Baltic archipelago.

Designed as a direct replacement for the aging Uisko-class, the Jurmo was engineered from the ground up for all-weather amphibious operations. Its shallow draft allows it to beach in waters where conventional landing craft cannot operate, making it a critical asset for rapid coastal assault and logistical support in Finland's unique island-dotted coastline.

Operational Capabilities

• Transports 22 fully equipped soldiers or 3 tons of cargo
• Capable of coming to a full stop within one ship length from top speed
• Exceptional maneuverability in confined coastal and archipelago waters
• All-weather operational capability in Baltic Sea conditions
• Low draft design enables amphibious assault in shallow waters

International Recognition

The Jurmo's design has attracted international attention, evaluated by both the German and Greek navies. The slightly enlarged and more powerful M14 variant was exported to the Royal Malaysian Police, with ten units delivered.
