Trident has a strong track record of success with navies and coast guards.

On Time, On Budget. Always.


Trident Maritime Systems has enjoyed long co-contractor relationships with shipbuilders serving the military. In fact, we have provided installation or materials on every major new subcontracted U.S. Navy surface ship program for the last 30 years and have a strong track record of successful projects for U.K. Royal Navy programs, the Canadian Royal Navy, and Coast Guard organizations in different countries.

Research & Development
Focus Improvement and Value



Over time, our thorough understanding of military shipbuilding requirements has inspired us to engineer and develop radically different, value-driven innovations that have changed the nature of naval ship outfitting. For example, our latest breakthroughs include unique construction techniques that dramatically reduce building cost and schedule time for shipyards.

Using finite element analysis, we have also developed modular construction techniques, integrated designs and creative applications that not only reduce material cost, but also installation hours. To the delight of our co-contractor and the U.S. Navy, we recently — and significantly — decreased the weight of a cargo reefer using new materials and techniques.

We are a leading provider of services to the U.K. Royal Navy.
For the first time in history, we built and sold a complete operational galley on block. Simultaneously we installed the first modular cabins on a U.S. military sealift command (MSC) ship.

In the United Kingdom, we are a leading provider of insulation, architectural outfitting, site and repair services to the Royal Navy. In addition, we are regularly engaged as electrical advisors for newbuild projects for the Swedish Coast Guard.
