Fincantieri unveiled its Multi-Mission Modular Vessel (MMMV) at Euronaval 2026 in Paris. The platform is designed to take on different missions through modular equipment, rather than being built around a single predefined role.
The vessel is 50 metres long, has a displacement of 500 tonnes and requires a core crew of six. It can carry 10- or 20-foot containerized mission modules, allowing its configuration to be changed at the quay.
Possible tasks include maritime security, surveillance and law enforcement, including efforts against illicit trafficking and piracy. The vessel can also support intelligence gathering, underwater operations, communications intelligence, protection of critical maritime infrastructure and combat missions.
