The Ruhl Maritime Search & Seizure Ladder (LMSS) is a self-contained tactical access ladder designed to provide a portable solution for maritime search, seizure, boarding, and specialized access operations. The system can be operated without requiring additional tools for deployment.
During setup, the rungs can be positioned vertically to allow the operator to raise the ladder and set the hook. With a quick pull, the rungs return to their horizontal climbing position. An integrated self-recovery system allows the operator to retrieve the hook after the mission is complete.
