Germany’s F126 frigates will soon be equipped with Systematic’s advanced command-and-control (C2) software, according to a recent announcement by the company. The project, named the National Maritime C2 Service Bundeswehr (NMC2S Bw), aims to enhance the capabilities of the German Navy’s frigates by integrating Systematic’s SitaWare C2 suite. The software, including SitaWare Maritime and Fusion, will be installed on board the F126 frigates as part of the Bundeswehr’s SitaWare Headquarters (HQ) licenses.
Systematic has stated that the licenses are anticipated to be made available in 2024, ensuring that Germany’s frigates are equipped with the latest cutting-edge technology. This development comes as Germany prepares to receive four multi-purpose surface combatant frigates under a contract worth EUR4.6 billion (USD5 billion) with prime contractor Damen Naval. Thales Netherlands is managing the integration and delivery of the mission system, fire-control system, and communications suite for the frigates.
The contract was awarded by DXC Technology Deutschland, which is responsible for overseeing the integration timeframes of the ships in coordination with Thales Netherlands. With the addition of Systematic’s C2 software, the F126 frigates will significantly enhance their operational capabilities, further solidifying Germany’s position as a leading naval power.
