L3Harris Technologies has received a contract from BAE Systems Maritime Australia for the Integrated Platform Management System (IPMS) on the Royal Australian Navy’s (RAN) Hunter class frigates.
L3Harris will design and deliver the IPMS to BAE Systems Maritime Australia to manage the ship’s propulsion, power generation and auxiliary and enhance the performance, reliability and safety of the frigates.
“This award exemplifies our commitment to deliver advanced technology that will significantly improve the RAN’s capabilities,” said Alan Clements, Vice President, Australia, L3Harris. “The Hunter is one of the world’s most advanced anti-submarine warfare frigates and key to ensuring Australia has a fleet with the highest level of performance, lethality and deterrence. As an Australian sovereign partner, L3Harris is proud to be part of this significant program.”
L3Harris developed the IPMS solution for the Royal Navy’s Type 26 frigates, which the Hunter class is based on, in the U.K. The construction of the Hunter class frigates is taking place at the Osborne Naval Shipyard, which is part of industry’s commitment to support the country’s Continuous Naval Shipbuilding program in South Australia intended to develop sovereign shipbuilding and sustainment.
“The Hunter Class Frigate Program is bringing together the best and brightest minds across the Defence industry,” said Paul Berryman, Acting Managing Director, BAE Systems Australia - Maritime. “Through the build of the Hunter class frigates, we are laying the foundations of Continuous Naval Shipbuilding and equipping Australians with critical skills and training.”
L3Harris’ IPMS incorporates functionalities and capabilities derived from years of working with partners such as the Royal Australian Navy, U.K. Royal Navy, Royal Netherlands Navy and Royal Canadian Navy. Since its inception, L3Harris has progressively enhanced the IPMS technology and has exported and delivered it to more than 300 vessels in 27 navies around the world.
