News release
Paris, July 15, 2026
Exail has been awarded a contract by a European navy to supply three light mine countermeasures drone systems. Designed for rapid deployment from rigid-hulled inflatable boats, these systems will enable naval forces to quickly identify and neutralize underwater mines. While smaller in scope than the mine countermeasure programs awarded to Exail in recent years, this contract represents a new reference for the Group's light drone systems.
Each system integrates Exail's UMIS technology and is primarily configured to deploy an adaptable combination of SEASCAN underwater mine identification drones and K-STER expendable mine disposal drones. The system can be operated by a crew of only three personnel. This compact and modular solution has been specifically developed for operations in very shallow waters and infrastructure-constrained environments where larger vessels cannot operate.
This order further strengthens the Group's leading position in underwater mine countermeasures through its UMIS drone system. It also demonstrates Exail's ability to adapt its technologies to different operational scales, ranging from large naval platforms to light rapid-intervention craft. This flexibility enables the Group to address a broader range of operational requirements and expand its addressable market in the field of mine warfare.
