France, May 13 -- A proven partnership, a new frontierThales and BAE Systems are working together to address that challenge, collaborating on the integration of their advanced sensor system, with the intent do demonstrate it on the Herne XLAUV platform in 2027.Transforming uncrewed, autonomous platformsAt the heart of this collaboration is a new intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance [ISR] mast system from Thales. Drawing on more than 100 years of optronics design, the system is currently in development at our world-leading optronic site in Glasgow. Designed for uncrewed, autonomous applications, it is a stealthy, low-mass solution whose modular architecture allows users to customise sensor payloads to meet specific operational requir...
