The Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) teamed with the Build in Canada Innovation Program (BCIP) to host a two-day Experimental Ship (X-Ship) industry day at Her Majesty’s Canadian Ship (HMCS) Carleton, a local Naval Reserve Division.
As announced in March of 2016, the RCN designated HMCS Montréal as its X-Ship, a role it will hold for the next 4-5 years for the testing of innovative technologies and concepts intended to help improve the Navy’s current operational efficiency and to ready it for the introduction of future classes of ships.
Subjects covered during the Industry Engagement event included: an overview of the X-Ship program; a definition of RCN innovation areas of interest; an overview of the selection process; what industry can expect from the RCN; how selected industry partners will be engaged; and an explanation of the process of sea-trials for selected technologies.
