New 40 mm Powerful Gun in Naval Warfare: BAE Systems' Sea Tridon Series<\/h2>

BAE Systems launched a new era in the naval gun world at Euronaval 2026. The Sea Tridon family includes 40 mm gun systems based on Bofors 40 Mk 4 and offers variations between the main gun for corvettes and close-in weapon system (CIWS) versions for corvettes. This family is designed to strengthen naval defense strategies, featuring modern technologies with radar support, automatic fire control, and low-cost operation advantages.<\/p>

Technical Capabilities and On-Field Balance<\/h2>

Sea Tridon family maintains high fire rate and excellent ammunition performance while preserving the 40 mm caliber. The Bofors 40 Mk 4-based main gun can be used as the main gun for corvettes, while radar-supported CIWS versions provide fast and precise responses against enemy aircraft, ships, or missiles. 3P programmable ammunition analyzes the target's speed, direction, and position, determining the most effective detonation time for the shell to neutralize the enemy. This system provides critical advantages in target tracking and fire control in naval warfare.<\/p>
