Apollo Micro Systems Secures Indian Navy Contract for Autonomous Underwater Warfare Prototype
Apollo Micro Systems has been awarded a Make-II Prototype Sanction Order by the Indian Navy to develop SAVIOR-ASW, India's first indigenously developed semi-submersible autonomous vessel for anti-submarine warfare surveillance. The unmanned platform will conduct intelligence, operations, and reconnaissance missions using advanced sensors and AI-based target classification. This project marks Apollo's entry into underwater warfare systems and is funded initially without government financial support, with potential for future procurement upon successful prototype demonstration.
