In July 2022, the European Commission selected the proposal submitted by the consortium led by Naviris together with Fincantieri, Naval Group and Navantia for the Modular and Multirole Patrol Corvette (MMPC) call. Following this decision, the CEOs of the four companies signed a preliminary consortium agreement today at Euronaval, whose objective is to rule the execution of the call.

The main objective of the agreement signed today will be to develop the initial design of the vessel, maximizing innovations, synergies and collaboration among European shipbuilding industry through the participation of:

  • 4 countries under the banner of the PESCO (Permanent Structured Cooperation) project (Italy, France, Spain and Greece)
  • 6 countries involved in the co-funding (Italy, France, Spain, Greece, Denmark and Norway)
  • 3 main European Shipbuilding Industries (Fincantieri, Naval Group and Navantia)
  • 40 companies for maritime systems and equipment from 12 EU countries

The objective is to design and develop a prototype for a new class of military ship, named “European Patrol Corvette” (EPC), which allows to host several systems and payloads, in order to accomplish, with a modular and flexible approach, a large number of tasks and missions.

The project EPC will focus on the initial phase of a European innovative, modular, flexible, interoperable, green, multirole vessel, enabling the European navies to face the 21st century challenges.
