In depth

Elbit Systems will unveil unmanned underwater vehicles for the first time, following its acquisition of the Canadian company ISE, which according to Bizportal has so far supplied more than 250 underwater vehicles to customers in at least 20 countries. According to Maariv, the vehicles will be displayed at an international exhibition.

According to Bizportal, the new vehicles are intended, among other things, for intelligence gathering, anti-submarine warfare, mine detection and the protection of strategic maritime infrastructure. According to Walla, demand in the field has accelerated after Russia began sabotaging Western communication cables on the seabed.
