The first Type 31 integrated combat system is on course to undergo factory acceptance testing (FAT) in the third quarter (Q3) of 2023, Thales has confirmed.

Speaking to media at Thales UK's facilities in Templecombe, UK, Julie Martin, naval senior account director, said that delivery of the first Type 31 mission system was on schedule.

“The key focus for us right now on the Type 31 is the fully integrated combat system FAT, which we've got coming up in late September this year,” she said. “We've got a number of FATs for individual equipments and individual subsystems in the run up to that – all of which are goingto plan and on schedule at the moment,” she added.
