The compact and lightweight powerhouses are 20in deep to save rack space while delivering a flexible and high–performance solution for mission–ready applications.

The ZX series integrates the latest computing technology with a system architecture supporting any extended motherboard with support for up to 3, 6 or 12 rugged hot–pluggable TP2 removable drives, a slim-line DVD-RW dual layer, and an environmental control board.

Designed and built for the harshest military environments, the chassis of the ZX 1-2-3 series of servers can sustain shock, vibration, humidity, and high/low temperature.

The FREMM European multi-mission frigate is a joint programme between France and Italy that originally included plans for a total of 27 FREMM frigates of which 17 for the French Navy and ten for the Italian Navy.

The frigate is designed to operate in anti-air, anti-submarine and anti-ship warfare and is capable of carrying out deep strikes against land targets.
