CMN presents new Stealth Ship Concept at IDEX 2011
 
 

The Combattante 65S is 65 meters in length and has been designed for intelligence gathering and special forces operations.

Its design has been focused on stealth. Therefore most sensors can be found in the integrated mast called Cmast. The Cmast is designed by Cassidian while other subcontractors include Chelton Cobam and Ineo Defense.
