SHORT DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT:

 

SEA Defence project will conduct a feasibility study in order to prepare a roadmap of technologies to be included in next generation of naval platforms and pursued in further European development programs. The study will address de following issues: lower detectability; higher survivability against modern surface and subsurface threats including against high-speed threats and swarming threats; reduction of ship motions; improved electric power generation and storage; capability to operate in extreme climates; topside; and increased autonomy and automation. For each area, the state of the art will be mapped and the impact of ship integration on capabilities, budget and interfaces will be assessed. Recommendations will be provided to realize innovations ready for the next generation naval platforms from their design or during their lifetime.
