Our Capability
Australian Maritime Technologies has built a highly
experienced team comprising all naval ship design
and engineering disciplines.
Our engineering management and project managers focus on whole of ship capability, through the collaboration of our four specialist technical
departments of Hull Systems, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Combat Systems Integration.
