Immersive simulation accelerates warship design

BMT’s new state-of-the-art Digital Innovation & Simulation Centre (DISC) aims to accelerate immersive engineering, autonomous systems assurance and digital twin solutions for defence and commercial customers.

Underpinning the Full Mission Bridge is the DNV-accredited BMT REMBRANDT high‑fidelity hydrodynamic engine, which enables everything from tug and pilot training, through to litigation‑grade reconstruction.

DISC also hosts the Marine Autonomous Surface Ship Synthetic Environment Assurance System (MASS SEAS) synthetic environment and BMT ENGAGE, which allows users to create
