Prestigious vessels such as the Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier, French frigates (Lafayette, Horizon) and numerous international programmes (Sawari, Delta, Sigma) are equipped with BMTI antennas.
Antenna systems for surface vessels
In numerous cases, BMTI has produced and deployed complete antenna systems. Besides supplying antennas covering various frequencies (VLF/HF, HF, V/UHF), BMTI supplies all necessary equipment for routing transmitted and received signals (multicouplers) and installing antennas (specific supports) in vessels. In particular, BMTI has deployed such global systems in ambitious programmes such as BPC (Projection and Command Vessel) and FREMM frigates.
Communications for submarines
The combination of various technologies developed by BMTI offers solutions that are particularly suited to the submarine industry and its specific requirements. The high-tech skills of BMTI engineers in radio frequency and composites have made it possible to develop highly compact multifunction antennas and protective radomes, which are particularly suited to the constraints of this type of vessel.
BMTI’s products and technologies have enabled the company to participate in prestigious programmes, such as the French Navy’s nuclear attack submarines and device-launching nuclear submarines, as well as numerous export programmes (Agosta, Scorpène). BMTI is currently continuing its development in this sector and contributes to the Barracuda class submarine project.
