OSI Maritime Systems (OSI) is pleased to announce a contract to support the Chilean Navy’s Scorpene-class upgrade program.
The contract includes the delivery of OSI’s Tactical Dived Navigation System D-MOP system and has been facilitated through a government-to-government (G2G) contract between CCC and the Chilean Navy. The first contract, signed in 2020, provided upgrades to the navigation capability of two Thompson-class submarines.
Ken Kirkpatrick, President and CEO, OSI Maritime Systems commented, “We’re proud of the work we are doing with the Chilean Navy. The success of the first contract paved the way for this subsequent agreement with the Navy; they know that we can deliver and that their submarines will be navigating with the best-dived solution available.”
