French Naval Group has signed three memorandums of understanding with Danish companies DESMI, MyDefence and the Danish Technological Institute (DTI). The agreements were signed at the Danish embassy in Paris in connection with the Euronaval 2026 defence trade fair.
According to Naval Group, the partnerships cover various technology areas for maritime applications. DTI will contribute expertise in areas including energy efficiency, automation and materials technology, while the DESMI partnership concerns pumps and fluid systems for ships.
For MyDefence, the agreement covers radio frequency detection technology and protection against unmanned aerial vehicles, intended for integration on Naval Group's unmanned surface vessels and naval ships.
DESMI describes its agreement as a framework for exploring opportunities to contribute to Naval Group's future naval programmes. It is therefore a memorandum of understanding rather than an announced order.
According to the Danish embassy in Paris, all three agreements were signed at a joint ceremony at the embassy.
