Nicolas Lefebvre, EPC Project Director at Naviris, introduces the European Patrol Corvette (EPC) project to Naval News during Sea Future 2025 in La Spezia, Italy.
=====================
Italy, France, Spain and Greece have joined forces to develop the MMPC Class of ships, and their industry has answered by proposing the European Patrol Corvette (EPC) Programme. Denmark industry and Norway, as participating State and industry, also contribute to the innovative studies of the Programme.
Developed by a core consortium bringing together the main prime contractor shipyards NAVAL GROUP, FINCANTIERI and NAVANTIA along with companies from the Participating States, all coordinated by NAVIRIS, and strongly supported by the European Defence Fund (EDF) and the participating Member States, this ambitious Programme will benefit from the expertise of numerous companies from 12 Member States.
The Project aims to provide the initial design of a next generation class of naval vessel, the European Patrol Corvette (EPC). The EPC will include at first two variants:
- Full Combat Multipurpose (FCM),
- Long Range Multipurpose (LRM)
both maximizing innovations (through dedicated studies of Technological Bricks), synergies and cross-fertilization among Industrial Partners.
