Maritime - Naval Ships is one of three businesses that form BAE Systems Maritime, along with Maritime Services and Maritime - Submarines.
Naval Ships encompasses ship design, build and combat systems capability for the surface fleet. Leveraging expertise in complex engineering programmes, we offer the whole spectrum of naval ships, including offshore patrol vessels through to giant aircraft carriers, giving customers the capability to fulfil extensive naval operations.
We are the sole supplier of combat management systems for the Royal Navy’s surface fleet, developing and integrating state of the art combat systems to equip customers with the best information to operate effectively in modern naval environments.
Our business is underpinned by a long-term partnering agreement with the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) that embeds a shared vision and common goals for the future of the UK’s complex warship sector. This same focus on partnerships is pivotal to our relationships with customers and industry partners around the world. As an international partner, we develop tailored technology transfer packages to strengthen industrial capability and skills to deliver cost-effective solutions to meet future naval requirements in the markets we operate.
With operations in Glasgow, Portsmouth (Naval Base and Broad Oak), Filton, Rosyth, Dorchester, Frimley and New Malden, we employ over 6,000 people and offer the facilities, skills and platforms to excel as a trusted and innovative partner for customers around the world.
