Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team May 13, 2009

The Defence Science and Technology Agency (DSTA) of Singapore has awarded Thales with the Life Extension Programme (LEP) of its four Bedok class mine-countermeasure vessels.

This contract highlights the relevance of both Thales's naval technology portfolio and its comprehensive set of skills and capabilities to address key modernisation programmes in a competitive international naval market.

Thales will provide an advanced, integrated mine-countermeasure (MCM) combat system, including the mine information system, a hull-mounted sonar, a towed synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) and expendable mine disposal systems.

Thales will also be in charge of making any structural alterations to the vessels in relation to the integration of new systems and equipment.

Within the framework of the contract, Thales will also closely cooperate with the ST Electronics Group.
