Groupe Gorgé’ Subsidiary, ECA Group, Confirms Its Role as a Global Player in Unmanned Surface Vehicles

The Group announced that it recently won two export contracts valued at more than €10 million for Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV).

On the one hand, a first customer exercised its option for two additional Inspector Mk2-type USVs after ordering two in early 2014.

On the other hand, ECA Group signed a contract of several million euros to supply two comprehensive systems for the identification and neutralization of underwater mines. These systems will be implemented on a partner's USVs. The latter will then deliver them to an Asian navy in 2016 and 2017.

This repeated success with USVs shows the high demand for drones in the areas of surface and underwater maritime patrol and intervention.
