NAPA Solutions for Navy
Fortifying naval fleets with state-of-the-art Ship Design, Stability, and Damage Control solutions.
Your partner for advanced technological solutions for modern naval challenges
In a world of rising security challenges, NAPA’s trusted tools ensure your fleet maintains mission capability.
For 35 years, NAPA has led global ship design, safety and stability technology advancement, offering tailored, secure and easy-to-use software that integrates harmoniously with the ship and organization systems.
NAPA provides the calculation engine and 3D modeling environment that naval architects trust for the most demanding vessel types. One authoritative 3D model carries data consistently from initial mass estimate through hull form design, stability analysis, and structural design to approval, ensuring all stakeholders work from a single source of truth throughout the programme. Design data remains within a secure, closed ecosystem shared only among authorized stakeholders.
On the operational side, our solutions have been serving onboard naval ships for more than 30 years. NAPA Stability helps manage intact and damage stability with real-time situational awareness, while the NAPA Emergency Computer assesses operational capabilities based on flooding and heeling analysis and shows how real-time countermeasure impacts the situation. We constantly seek deeper cooperation with EU and NATO defense forces to further our solutions that ensure naval fleets are prepared to meet modern challenges with confidence.

Maintaining Mission Resilience with solutions tailored to your fleet
For Naval Ship Designers
Built for naval architects who need precision at every stage. One model, complete traceability, secure data throughout the programme.
- Hull form design and hydrodynamics: Optimize hull geometry with integrated resistance and seakeeping analysis for the full range of naval vessel types; from frigates and corvettes to submarines and offshore patrol vessels.
- Hydrostatics and stability:Intact and damage stability calculations connected directly to the 3D design model. Covers evolving civil, naval, and classification rules across the full design programme.
- Structural design (NAPA Steel): Rule-based and direct structural analysis within the same model environment. Handles the high structural strength requirements of naval vessels within compact dimensions.
- Information sharing and collaboration: Multi-discipline design teams working from one authoritative model with full traceability.
Customer case – Naval Group
Designing safe and stable navy vessels
How Naval Group’s Weight-Stability Service team uses NAPA throughout the design lifecycle, from initial mass estimates to detailed stability analysis on programmes including the FDI frigate and the Mistral BPC.
When the design model goes to sea
The same 3D model that designs the vessel follows it into service. See how Naval Group extends NAPA’s design data into onboard stability management and emergency preparedness, ensuring data consistency from blueprint to real-world operations.
