European Militaries Get Access To Unified Procurement Platform
Dutch defense-technology startup Intelic has launched a European military drone marketplace, aiming to speed up procurement by allowing militaries to compare various available unmanned systems. The platform, called BASE, brings together drone manufacturers from nine European countries and utilizes Intelic’s Nexus command-and-control software to ensure interoperability. According to Intelic CEO Maurits Korthals Altes, the marketplace was inspired by procurement models developed in Ukraine. This development was first reported by Defense News.
