Sagem Contract from DSME to Supply Optronic Masts

摘要

Following an international request for proposals, Sagem (Safran) has signed a contract with Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co Ltd (DSME) of South Korea, to supply optronic surveillance masts for the country's new submarines. The selection of Sagem was made by a commission comprising members from the South Korean navy, DAPA (Defence Acquisition Program Administration), ADD (Agency for Defence Development) and DSME. The decisive factors in this decision were the best world-class competitiveness and performance level offered by Sagem's optronic masts, especially in terms of image resolution and processing, and their easy integration in the ship's combat suite.
