Russia will have its own heavy-class computer-aided design (CAD) system for shipbuilders, which will cover both military and civilian vessels. According to the USC press service, the future domestic software, which will replace foreign analogues, has already passed the "Preliminary Design" stage.
USC is working on the project "Finalization and implementation of a domestic heavy-class shipbuilding CAD system as an environment for design and engineering and technological preparation of production" together with JSC "SISOFT DEVELOPMENT". A grant for the activity was allocated by the Russian Fund for the Development of Information Technologies.
The CAD project is being implemented to solve the problem of import substitution of foreign software in the field of marine equipment design and to provide domestic shipbuilding industry enterprises with modern design and technological production preparation technologies, taking into account information security requirements, and is one of the key projects initiated by JSC "USC" in order to create a Unified Information Space for the domestic digital shipbuilding industry.
The project also involves six major shipbuilders in the country: Rubin Central Design Bureau for Marine Engineering, Almaz Central Marine Design Bureau, SPMBM Malachite, Vympel Design Bureau, Yantar Shipyard, and Admiralty Shipyards. The novelty will be tested and refined at their facilities.
