Kongsberg Maritime is a global technology partner delivering integrated maritime systems that enable mission-ready naval capability. Combining deep operational insight with proven maritime technologies, we support naval forces in achieving reliable, efficient, and future-ready performance across the full vessel lifecycle.
Naval missions operate in complex and demanding environments where systems must perform under real operational conditions. Kongsberg Maritime designs solutions based on operational experience, mission profiles, and vessel behaviour—ensuring capability aligns with how navies actually operate.
This operations-led approach enables predictable performance, reduced uncertainty, and greater mission confidence for naval customers operating in high-risk and mission-critical scenarios.
Kongsberg Maritime delivers mission-critical capability as integrated systems, bringing together propulsion, manoeuvring, automation, digital solutions, deck machinery, and support systems into a coherent operational whole.
From bridge to propeller, these solutions provide secure control, improved coordination, and efficient vessel operation—reducing complexity for shipyards, operators, and programme stakeholders.
Core system areas include:
These capabilities enable flexible, mission-specific configurations tailored to evolving operational demands.
Trusted by more than 70 navies worldwide, Kongsberg Maritime brings proven performance and credibility to naval programmes.
Home to the renowned Kongsberg Kamewa propulsion technology and supported by an in-house Hydrodynamic Research Centre, the company combines advanced modelling, testing, and real-world validation to ensure its solutions deliver safety, efficiency, and reliability in demanding naval environments.
Naval vessels must remain operational over decades of service. Kongsberg Maritime supports this through lifecycle-oriented system design, global service capability, and long-term programme engagement.
Its global support network provides:
Training and simulation are closely aligned with onboard systems, enabling crews to understand system behaviour and optimise performance in realistic operational scenarios.
The naval operating environment is evolving rapidly, placing increasing demands on capability, flexibility, efficiency, and sustainability.
Kongsberg Maritime develops and integrates digital, connected, and autonomy-enabling technologies within a secure and operationally relevant system architecture.
From enhanced situational awareness and decision support to remote operations and data-driven insights, these capabilities enable navies to adopt new technologies at their own pace—without compromising reliability or mission effectiveness.
By combining operational insight, integrated systems, and lifecycle expertise, Kongsberg Maritime enables naval forces to:
As a trusted partner, Kongsberg Maritime works closely with navies, shipyards, and defence stakeholders to deliver capability that performs when it matters most—at sea, in mission, and over time.
