Superships of the Future

Overview

In this gripping documentary, we enter the yards of a European leader in naval defence, where giants of the seas have been designed, developed, and built for almost 400 years. We explore the next nuclear submarines that will glide almost silently through the oceans from 2035. For operations in a crisis zone, the Defence and Intervention Frigate (FDI) is a vessel that can respond to an attack by sending missiles in a tenth of a second. As uncrewed systems play an increasingly important role in naval combat, the French company developed a vessel that deploys an armada of drones, for example, to track and destroy mines. In 2038, an immense aircraft carrier will take to the seas, able to swiftly catapult several dozen fighter jets into the sky. Join us as one of the world’s most secretive companies opens its doors for the first time.
