Naval Group at DefExpo 2018
The Naval Group have showcased the state-of-art innovations created for modern navies demonstrating its capabilities in modern ship and submarine building along with high tech solutions for systems and competence as leading naval integrator. “The Naval Group was launched in 2008 in India as ‘a live example of our dedication within the country’. This long-term partnership has only matured through long term, sustainable industrial cooperation and technology transfers. Naval Group’s activities are synced with the ‘Make in India’ policy of the Indian Government. The P75 programme is an illustration of the successful indigenisation process where the first submarine of the class INS Kalvari was commissioned during end of last year. On 31 January 2018, the third made-in-India Scorpene-class submarine, the Karanj, was launched in Mumbai, highlighting the empowerment of the Indian Navy toward complete self-reliance.”
As Alain Guillou, Executive Vice President stated, “Naval Group is pleased to present its latest innovations at DefEpo 2018. Our know- how is the result of our large investment in Research & Development (10% of annual revenues). Our sea-proven technologies benefit from the vast feedback from different navies including that of the French Navy and offers superior and adapted technologies to our customers. Our trained and talented Indian teams at the subsidiary are motivated to serve for the Indian business as well as being integrated in the international projects of the group.”
