Forward Electrics was tasked by the Australian Navy to repair an Auxiliary Propulsion Control System causing operational disruptions. Our engineers pinpointed the root cause — an outdated power supply causing intermittent failures — and replaced it with a more robust model. The system was recalibrated to Navy operational standards, tested under multiple conditions, and fully restored, ensuring the vessel's ongoing readiness.
