Marine Jet Power

Why is inlet design so important?

Most people focus on the waterjet itself. But the inlet? That's where performance is won or lost.

How water enters the system determines everything – flow efficiency, thrust output, and long-term reliability. A well-designed inlet minimizes pressure losses and keeps the flow uniform.

A poor one causes cavitation before the waterjet even gets a chance to do its job. Learn more at marinejetpower.com

54 vessels. 45 knots. One proven waterjet solution.

Built for rapid response and demanding operations, the Fast Interceptor Craft fleet for the Indian Coast Guard relies on MJP 650 CSU DD waterjets for high thrust, acceleration, and maneuverability at speed.

Some vessels need to go where others simply can’t.

Landing craft are built for exactly that – carrying cargo, people and equipment from open water all the way to shore. It's demanding work and the propulsion has to match.

That's why so many landing craft operators around the world trust MJP waterjets. No exposed propellers, reliable performance in shallow water and low maintenance when it matters most.

Unlike conventional propulsion systems, waterjets have no exposed propellers beneath the hull. This significantly reduces the risk of damage when operating in shallow waters or environments where debris is present.

Instead, water is drawn in and accelerated through an internal system, protecting critical components and enabling more reliable operation in challenging conditions.

This makes waterjets particularly well suited for applications such as rivers, coastal transport and confined waterways – where traditional systems are more vulnerable.
