The vessels must meet stringent specifications, including a full-cabin hybrid rigid hull inflatable boat (RHIB) design comparable to the Zodiac Milpro SRA 1050, constructed from heavy-duty marine-grade 5083 aluminum, equipped with twin 200–300 HP outboard engines, capable of 40–45 knots under operational load, and fitted with full navigation, communication, and safety systems compliant with SOLAS, IMO, COLREGS, ISO, and ABYC standards.

Delivery is required to PMSA headquarters in Karachi, Pakistan, via sea freight to Karachi Port, with the contractor responsible for all local trucking costs from port to final destination. The delivery timeline is set between nine and twelve months after contract award, contingent on the timely receipt of any required export license, with a target delivery date of May 31, 2027.
