Naval Auxiliaries

 

Vard Marine’s VARD 7 300 series auxiliary vessels are flexible, multi-role vessels, supporting combatant ships in naval operations across a wide range of mission profiles. Auxiliaries play a vital role in navies’ fleets as they assist with tasks such as logistics, operational support, humanitarian efforts, and transport capabilities.

 

OUR AUXILIARIES DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

The VARD 7 300 series provide core naval sealift capacity in a package built around commercial equipment and build strategy, with core features necessary to integrate into naval doctrine. They can be adapted to incorporate naval communications, self-defence armament, and carriage of organic shore connectors, while ensuring reliable cargo movement between established port facilities.

 

OUR COLLABORATIVE APPROACH

Our approach is grounded in lifecycle thinking. Auxiliary vessels represent long-term strategic investments, and our designs are developed with that in mind – adaptable, upgradeable, and ready to integrate emerging technologies.

A modular payload platform enables rapid reconfiguration to meet evolving operational demands. There are flexible internal and external decks to accommodate tanks, trucks, and ISO containers that can serve naval, coast guard, and security operations.

We work with you every step of the way to ensure we balance loading, operational volume and density, speed, and topside requirements to find a unique solution you will be happy with.

WE DON'T STOP THERE

Our commitment extends beyond design optimization. We continuously refine each solution to reduce total cost to the client while maintaining operational effectiveness.

We also provide shipyard support and oversee sea trials—ensuring that what is delivered performs as intended, meets operational expectations, and is ready for service from day one.
