TKMS and Marmen Sign Teaming Deal to Build Type 212CD Submarine Segments in Canada

The pact brings Canadian manufacturing into TKMS’s 212CD supply chain under the CPSP framework.

Overview

  • Under the agreement, Marmen will produce selected submarine sections and complex assemblies for the Type 212CD platform in Canada.
  • TKMS describes the MoU as a step to integrate Canadian industry into its submarine production network and transfer know‑how for sovereign in‑service support.
  • Company officials say the collaboration will expand TKMS production capacity and drive equipment investment and hundreds of new jobs in Québec, including Trois‑Rivières.
  • The move fits within the Canadian Patrol Submarine Project, for which the government named TKMS a qualified supplier in April 2025.
  • The teaming arrangement is an industrial collaboration and not a final Canadian procurement decision or contract award for submarines under CPSP.
