Mahindra Defence Naval Systems, a part of Mahindra Group, on July 6, 2015 joined hands with Ultra Electronics, the UK-based electronic and software technologies specialist, for addressing the highly specialised segment of underwater warfare equipment for the Indian Navy and radios for the Indian Army.
The Indian Navy has been importing a major part of underwater war fighting equipment from abroad to service its needs. We expect to provide cutting edge technology to the Indian Navy in this field in partnership with Ultra Electronics. We also expect to address the requirement of specialised radios and other defence electronics for all the three wings of the armed forces,” stated S P Shukla, group president - aerospace & defence sector, Mahindra Group and chairman, Mahindra Defence Naval Systems.
With the renewed thrust from the government in clearing various naval programs and the emphasis on ‘Make In India’, Mahindra Defence and Ultra Electronics have come together to build and supply new generation advanced systems like the new torpedo defence system (NTDS), integrated anti-submarine warfare defence suite (IADS) and mine counter measure (MCM) equipment, in addition to other programs involving systems for anti-submarine warfare (ASW) vessels, submarine safety equipment, sonobuoys, underwater ranges etc. The partnership will also address the requirement of specialised radios for the Indian Army’s tactical communication systems.
Rakesh Sharma, CEO, Ultra Electronics, said, “This highly significant new partnership with Mahindra Defence Naval Systems - to deliver a range of advanced anti-submarine warfare capabilities to the Indian Navy - builds upon our existing collaboration in providing modern, software defined tactical radios to the Indian Army. Together, these activities make the foundation of a strong and lasting relationship with the Mahindra Group.”
Ultra Electronics applies electronic and software technologies in demanding and critical environments ranging from military applications, through safety-critical devices in aircraft, to nuclear controls and sensor measurement.
