Verifiable independence means BMT can be a customer friend to governments or work for any defence prime from concept through to disposal or as a critical partner where we actively transfer knowledge and expertise. Vidar®-36, our design for a large, ocean-going SSK, demonstrates we know what we advise others about.

SSPA
The design of the Visby class corvette is one example of the long and successful tradition of co-operation between SSPA and the Swedish Defence Material Administration and the Royal Swedish Navy.	The hydromechanics design work of the IZAR P650 submarine included extensive model tests, development of propeller geometry, manoeuvring simulations and speed power predictions carried out by SSPA.	Design and model experiments on pumpjets for submarine designs have been conducted by SSPA.
The 65-knots fast 36m motor yacht 118 Wally Power was a milestone in yacht design: the SSPA predictions based on model tests were fully proven at sea trials.	Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) calculations of wave pattern signature and pressure distribution on a 60m generic submarine travelling at 8 knots in shallow water; SSPA utilises the CFD codes SHIPFLOW and FLUENT.
