French Defence Company Secures Deal For Advanced Undersea Warfare Capabilities
Thales, a French defence company, has secured a $53.9 million contract from the US Navy to deliver two next-generation Remote Mine Hunting (RMH) modules, strengthening its undersea warfare capabilities. The RMH solution will support the Navy’s Find, Fix and Finish approach to countering undersea mine threats, enabling sailors to remotely detect, locate, and classify mines from safer stand-off distances. The contract includes options for additional modules, potentially increasing its total value to $196.2 million. This development was first reported by Media India Group.
