Underwater defence technology company Forcys has announced a strategic partnership with Cubedin, a manufacturer of modular infrastructure for maritime operations. The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding at EURONAVAL 2024 in Paris.
Forcys has a track record of integrating and bringing to the market solutions from technology companies, including Chelsea Technologies, EIVA, Sonardyne, Voyis, and Wavefront Systems. Forcys harnesses the capabilities to deliver highly customisable, interoperable, and containerised solutions for complex naval missions.
At the core of this integration is Forcys’ MCM-in-a-box, designed and developed by EIVA. The 20-foot cube module solution features EIVA’s remotely operated towed vehicle. This versatile system supports a variety of payloads, enabling it to meet mine countermeasures (MCM) requirements as well as rapid environmental assessment, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance operations.
Designed with maximum flexibility in mind, the MCM-in-a-box can operate as a standalone system from any vessel of opportunity or military ship, and it is ideally suited to the Cubedin concept.
“We are excited to partner with Cubedin and see our MCM-in-a-box solution incorporated into Cubedin’s modular concept,” said Forcys’ Antonio J. Belfiore. “This integration will make it easier to incorporate our solution into more complex C2 setups, creating seamless integration opportunities for modular military ships and making our systems readily accessible to our customers.”
