Integris, in collaboration with TR Equipment, has successfully developed and delivered an advanced maritime ballistic protection system for ship gunners to the Marine Nationale (French Navy). This naval protection solution is designed to enhance operator survivability in high-threat maritime environments, including coastal patrol, naval security operations, and expeditionary missions. The system incorporates lightweight armour technology, modular ballistic protection, and scalable protection levels up to STANAG Level 2, with options for higher threat-level configurations. This naval armour system is engineered for rapid integration and minimal vessel downtime, making it suitable for all naval vessels. The design ensures optimal situational awareness while improving crew protection against ballistic threats and fragmentation. TR Equipment contributes extensive expertise in defence system integration, maritime platform adaptation, mechanical engineering, and rapid prototyping. Their capabilities enable efficient deployment of modular protection systems tailored to naval mission requirements and operational constraints. The Marine Nationale operates globally across maritime security, defence, and force projection missions. This system supports their need for adaptable, high-performance naval protection solutions in modern asymmetric threat environments.
