Forcys Deliver Sentinel IDS® Expeditionary Trailers to a long-standing defence customer

Global maritime defence company Forcys has confirmed the delivery of Sentinel IDS^® Expeditionary Trailers to a long-standing defence customer.

Developed by our technology partner Wavefront Systems, the Sentinel Expeditionary Trailer is a fully self-contained, mobile security unit that provides rapid and effective underwater protection for defence forces operating in remote or infrastructure-limited environments. Designed for quick deployment and maximum mobility, the system offers enhanced situational awareness wherever it is required.

Each trailer houses the world-leading Sentinel Intruder Detection Sonar which can detect and classify divers at ranges of up to 1,000 metres and uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) at up to 1,500 metres. The compact trailer-based configuration allows Sentinel to be deployed where fixed infrastructure is unavailable or unsuitable, making it an ideal solution for expeditionary and forward-operating missions.

Founded in 2022 and built on a legacy of over five decades in the underwater domain, Forcys continues to be trusted by navies and defence organisations around the world.

Delivering more modern and more capable defence solutions, through next-generation situational awareness technology that provide mission-tailored underwater intelligence and control.

This latest delivery reflects the growing international confidence in Forcys and Wavefront’s ability to supply integrated systems built for operational flexibility and effectiveness.

Ioseba Tena, Managing Director at Forcys, commented: “This new offer makes it even easier to arrive on site, deploy the sonar and secure your perimeter. With ongoing developments it’s no surprise that Sentinel is still the world’s most widely deployed intruder detection system, keeping people and assets safe from underwater threats, anywhere, anytime.”

The Sentinel IDS® Expeditionary Trailer can be explored in more detail via the Wavefront Systems website.

Attendees at the Combined Naval Event (CNE) 2025 are invited to visit the Forcys stand to meet the Team and learn more about the Expeditionary Trailer as well as Forcys latest innovations in maritime defence.
