Apollo Micro Systems Receives Indian Navy Order for Autonomous Underwater Warfare Prototype
Apollo Micro Systems has been awarded a Make-II Prototype Sanction Order by the Indian Navy to design and develop SAVIOR-ASW, an indigenous semi-submersible autonomous vessel for anti-submarine warfare surveillance. This unmanned platform will conduct intelligence, operations, and reconnaissance missions using advanced acoustic sensors, AI-based target classification, and encrypted communications. The project marks Apollo Micro Systems' entry into autonomous underwater warfare systems, with no government funding during prototype development and potential future procurement upon successful demonstration.
