MTU Drive Solutions for Navy and Government Vessels:

Corvettes, Frigates and Destroyers

As a system provider, MTU not only offers you complex and powerful propulsion systems for large naval ships with a wide operational spectrum, but also offers everything for on-board power supply and ship automation – perfectly aligned from one source.

Patrol Vessels and Crafts

Patrol vessels and speedboats contribute substantially to national security. Our engines guarantee the speed, dynamic performance and range you need to perform your duties with absolute reliability.

Amphibious, Support and Special-purpose Vessels

Support vessels and tenders as well as task group supply and landing crafts need special propulsion systems. These can be individually tailored to your needs with reliable and powerful MTU diesel engines.

Mine Countermeasure Vessels

Given their sensitive duties, mine countermeasure vessels such as minesweepers and mine hunters place strict demands upon their propulsion systems – requirements that MTU engines are designed to fulfill.

Submarines

MTU is one of the few manufacturers that can satisfy the extremely high technical demands placed on submarine engines. We’ve been leading in this field for decades with our substantial experience: most conventional submarines around the world use MTU engines.

Ship Automation

The MTU Callosum integrated ship automation system allows for the complete monitoring of propulsion, on-board power supply and ship operations for large vessels with complex systems. For smaller ships, our standard BlueVision_Advanced I New Generation system is ideal.

Repowering

The repowering of naval and governmental vessels that have proven themselves in duty is an economic alternative to new procurement. With decreased downtime and reduced costs throughout the entire life cycle of a ship, repowering with MTU can be a strategic advantage.
