The Cube Modular Mission Capability system is the future in Maritime mission modularity. Capable of turning (almost) any platform into a future-proof multimission capability using interchangeable modules for all four dimensions of modern warfare.

This agreement follows the successful recent delivery of a Containerised ROTV (Remotely Operated Towed Vehicle) solution to a NATO Navy. In this project, Forcys’ sister company EIVA A/S delivered a ScanFish L ROTV, which was seamlessly integrated into an SH Defence Cube, demonstrating the potential of this collaborative integration.

“We are excited about the opportunities this MoU brings,” said Ioseba Tena, Managing Director of Forcys. “Integrating our advanced solutions with the Cube system will provide operational flexibility and capability to naval forces worldwide. This collaboration underscores our commitment to enhancing maritime defence through innovation and strategic partnerships.”

The MoU marks a significant step towards a deeper collaboration between Forcys and SH Defence. Both companies are committed to pushing the boundaries of what is possible in naval operations, leveraging their combined expertise to deliver state-of-the-art solutions to defence markets worldwide.
