The DCNS exhibit at LIMA will feature the Gowind® 2500 and the Gowind® 1000 with SETIS®, the
Scorpene 2000 and Scorpene 1000 submarines, the OPV 75, the MU 90 and Canto, and an
innovative concept ship, the SMX®-OCEAN.
Gowind® is an exceptional naval asset for missions ranging from counter-piracy to sea control and
denial including anti-submarine warfare operations. Equipped with a SETIS® combat management
system, based on the one equipping the FREMM frigates, Gowind® provides the full range of
warfare capabilities. These corvettes have been designed to be simple to operate, easy to maintain
and efficient. Gowind® platforms and mission systems can be tailored to customer requirements for
an optimum trade-off between homeland security and naval combat capabilities.
The Scorpene 2000 submarines, already chosen by the Royal Malaysian Navy, represent the stateof-the-art in submarine design and construction and benefit from the latest technologies developed
for nuclear-powered classes operated by the French Navy, particularly as regards acoustic
discretion and combat system performance. Therewith, on the occasion of the LIMA show, the
DCNS Group will showcase an innovative concept ship, the SMX®-OCEAN, the transposition of a
BARRACUDA SSN design to a conventional submarine design. Thanks to the selected architectural
options and the innovations it incorporates, the SMX®-OCEAN achieves exceptional performance
while also being the first “green” submarine and fully compliant with the Marpol international
