The pact brings together France\u2019s future anti-mine warfare system known as SLAM-F and the Belgian-Dutch Mine Countermeasures system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFrance has notably confirmed its decision to launch the design of French mine warfare vessels on the basis of that of the vessels of the binational Belgian-Dutch rMCM program,\u201d the ministry said in a statement. \u201cThus, the nations share the goals of maximizing design communities to create opportunities for specific joint in-service support and other joint activity related to mine warfare capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The SLAM-F effort aims to replace Navy personnel with autonomous vessels for de-mining missions. It was developed under the Franco-British Maritime Mine Countermeasures program, launched in 2012 to develop a prototype underwater drone that could detect and neutralize sea mines and underwater improvised explosive devices. The industry team for the prototype program was led by Thales and BAE Systems, with co-partners including the United Kingdom\u2019s Saab, ASV, and Wood &amp; Douglas, and France\u2019s ECA Group \u2013 which announced on Tuesday that it will now operate, together with longtime partner iXBlue, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2022\/10\/19\/eying-seabed-ops-french-firms-ixblue-eca-group-rebrand-as-exail\/\">under the name Exail<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thales delivered the first prototype SLAM-F system to the French navy in 2021. France plans to begin ordering its initial SLAM-F systems in 2023, with a delivery date currently in discussion, the ministry said. Officials have previously announced plans to order up to eight unmanned systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Belgian and Dutch navies expect to begin deliveries of their respective rMCM systems in 2024. Naval Group and ECA Group formed a consortium dubbed Belgian Naval and Robotics in 2019 to lead the program. The rMCM program is expected to include 12 minehunter vessels and about 100 unmanned systems split between Belgium and the Netherlands, according to Naval Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In April, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2022\/04\/29\/naval-group-opens-new-counter-mine-warfare-cyber-labs-in-brussels\/\"><u>Naval Group inaugurated a new MCM research-and-development (R&amp;D) center in Brussels, alongside a lab dedicated to cyber technology<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The French navy\u2019s top official has called for increased intergovernmental cooperation in the maritime domain to support interoperability and decrease the cost burden on allies. In a speech Monday ahead of Euronaval, Adm. Pierre Vandier highlighted joint programs and interoperable capabilities as a critical element of France\u2019s future navy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paris will rely on its
