TL8_Flying_Patrol_Boat Ground landings are only done during emergencies. Normally 20 of one of the four kinds of 400mm ammo will be carried, depending on the mission. In addition to doing harbor patrols this boat also makes a great tank buster, but it's not very good at dogfighting. The defense turrets are on the far left and right sides of the top of the vehicle.
