Warship today. Mine countermeasures vessel (MCM) tomorrow. Humanitarian aid vessel next week.
New cutting-edge equipment solution allows Navy and Coast Guard vessels to change purpose in less than 4 hours – without costly rebuilding between missions.
As you know, modern naval vessels must be capable of carrying out different missions and roles in both peacetime and wartime. This calls for solutions that enable them to quickly adapt to any new mission without a costly rebuild.
This is why SH Defence developed The Cube™. A flexible and cost-saving modular equipment solution that enables a vessel to act as a warship on one mission, mine countermeasures vessel on another – and humanitarian aid vessel or any other role on a third.
All it takes is a change of modules to load the vessel with the equipment needed for a new function. It could be a module with a decompression chamber for diving missions, a module to deploy and recover scientific equipment, working crane modules, weapon systems, surveillance equipment or fast attack boats or RIBs. Once the vessel is prepared for The Cube™, the possibilities are endless. Download The Cube™ brochure.
