This craft, and its forebears (variously named as the 1500TD, 2000TD, 2000TDX and 2000TDX MkII) is the most popular craft in the extensive Griffon range. As with all Griffon hovercraft, it should only really be used where its amphibious capabilities are needed rather than just its high speed. Other good reasons for purchasing hovercraft include the lack of wash/wake at high speed, and the lack of normal infrastructure for boats (i.e. no harbours, no reliable deep water channels, no pontoons/piers etc.)

In the commercial market, the applications for this size of craft have included airport crash rescue, search and rescue, oil crew boats, passenger ferries (tourist and commuter), medical clinics, dredging support, civil engineering support and exploration.

In the military/paramilitary roles, this size of craft is in service with the British Royal Marines (4 craft), the Swedish Coast Guard (3 craft), Finland Frontier Guard (3 craft), Belgian Army (1 craft), the Estonian Boarder Guard (1 craft) and Lithuanian Border Police (1 craft), Pakistan Navy (4 craft).
