What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Seadronix, a Korean AI startup, announced it secured its first government vessel supply reference in the global defense market. The company's AI ship monitoring and navigation system, NAVISS Bridge, will be installed on the Republic of Singapore Navy's next-generation Sentinel-class Offshore Patrol Vessels (OPVs). Seadronix is the sole non-European company selected for the vessels' sensor suite, which also includes Thales, Safran Aircraft Engines, and Terma.
