Collins Maritime Systems is a world leader in the design, manufacture, integration, and support of submarine life-support systems, torpedo propulsion systems, and fuel cells for maritime system platforms. Our operations are in Windsor Locks, CT; San Dimas, CA; and Rockford, IL. We compete in U.S. and international markets using our technology and innovation expertise, specialized capabilities of our people, long and trusted relationships with our customers, modular designs that can adapt to new applications, and a diverse product portfolio that comprises mature and newly developed products.

We are also a growing business positioned well for the future. Our life support products are growing with the recapitalizing of the U.S. submarine fleet due to the new builds for Virginia and Columbia class submarines. Our torpedo team has won early-stage propulsion contracts for the US Navy’s next generation torpedoes, and our line of fuel cell-based submarine and UUV propulsion systems provide significant advantages over the existing installed base of lithium batteries and diesel engines.
