Mumbai-based Mahindra Group and US-based Anduril Industries on Wednesday announced a strategic partnership aimed at co-developing and co-producing autonomous maritime systems, advanced artificial intelligence-enabled counter unmanned aerial system (CUAS) technologies and command and control (C2) software.
The collaboration seeks to strengthen regional security by deploying next-generation autonomous solutions and enhancing capabilities for maritime operations. The partnership focuses on developing modular autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) that can be rapidly deployed for security, surveillance, survey, and reconnaissance missions.
The CUAS will be capable of detecting and neutralizing drone threats. In parallel, the collaboration will focus on developing a sensor fusion platform to integrate multiple sensor technologies into a flexible, open API architecture, streamlining integration processes and accelerating the adoption of advanced technologies across complex security programs, a statement said.
