CMN Naval operates in three main business areas: shipbuilding, renewable energy and integrated logistics support. The vessels sold include high-speed interceptors such as the HSI32, designed for operations such as naval strikes and search and rescue missions.[8] The HSI32 was also developed as an unmanned version, UHSI32, which navigates autonomously but can also be operated via land-based remote control.[9] For remote surveillance, CMN Naval offers, for example, the Ocean Eagle 43, which features a trimaran hull.[10] The Vigilante class includes offshore patrol vessels suited to both coastal and high-seas operations.[11] In the corvette sector, CMN Naval has developed the Seaguard 96.[12] In addition to military vessels, CMN Naval also builds yachts.[13]

CMN Naval offers integrated logistic support (ILS), technology transfer, nuclear power plant maintenance, refit and conversion, combat system integration, stealth technology, and technical and tactical training.[14] With its subsidiary HydroQuest, CMN Naval also offers systems in the field of sustainable marine energy production, such as tidal turbines. These turbines convert energy from tidal currents into renewable and predictable electricity.[1][15]
