Australia’s future Mogami frigates will receive a new terminal-defence layer. Raytheon’s SeaRAM contract links US missile-defence production, Japanese shipbuilding, and Australian naval recapitalisation under the Sea3000 general-purpose frigate programme.
-
HAVELSAN has introduced ADVENT-AI as an artificial intelligence layer for its naval combat management system. The upgrade targets anomaly detection, tactical picture generation, electronic warfare conditions, navigation support, monitoring, and naval gunfire prediction for existing and future platforms.

Taiwan’s Narwhal submarine has completed its first torpedo launch verification. The milestone moves the indigenous submarine programme further through sea acceptance testing, validating combat system, fire-control, launch, recovery, and integration work central to Taiwan’s long-term undersea production ambitions.

L3Harris will equip Poland’s Miecznik frigates with platform management systems. The Integrated Platform Management System will support automation, safety, machinery monitoring, alarms, and ship efficiency, while adding integration work across cabling, software configuration, acceptance testing, training, and in-service support for PGZ Stocznia Wojenna’s Arrowhead 140-based build of new naval vessels.

Dutch Aegis study tests Europe’s naval systems sovereignty choices today. The frigate decision could reshape workshare around radar, combat management, missile integration, software control, and shipyard production as the Netherlands weighs US architecture against domestic and European industrial control.
-
Pakistan has commissioned its first Hangor-class submarine in China today. The eight-boat programme combines Chinese production with planned construction at Karachi Shipyard, expanding undersea capability while developing local assembly, integration, and sustainment skills for pressure hulls, propulsion, combat systems, battery safety, acoustic control, dockyard support, and upgrades across the fleet.
-
L3Harris’ Trident modification sustains strategic missile instrumentation support work today. The contract highlights a specialist production chain behind deterrence, where telemetry packages, sensors, data systems, environmental hardening, propulsion components, calibration, and configuration control support submarine launched ballistic missile trials.

PrSM pathway extends land fires into maritime denial missions today. Increment 4 is being shaped around Pacific ranges, moving maritime targets, and GPS contested operations, with production demands centred on seeker performance, propulsion, datalinks, launch compatibility, targeting software, and system integration.
