DESMI selected by Irving Shipbuilding for River-class Destroyer program
The River-class Destroyer design is based on the United Kingdom’s Type 26 Global Combat Ship, for which DESMI has been a strategic supplier since the program’s inception 💪
The River-class Destroyer will be a future class of up to 15 warships for the Royal Canadian Navy, with first delivery expected in the early 2030s.
Under this contract, DESMI will supply the Whole Ship Pumps Package and Hot Fresh Water Modules for Batch 1 (three ships) 🚢
The contract reflects DESMI’s continued contribution to the Global Combat Ship platform, following earlier supply awards for the Hunter Class Frigate program in Australia.
