MetOcean Telematics and Kalyani Strategic Systems Limited (KSSL) have established a strategic partnership following the award of an Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) surveillance contract by the Ministry of Defence, Government of India.

The collaboration pairs MetOcean’s undersea sensing and satellite-enabled telemetry technologies with KSSL’s expertise in defence systems, integration, and in-country delivery. Under the contract, the two companies will deploy MetOcean’s autonomous ASW surveillance system to enhance undersea situational awareness for the Indian defence sector. The award represents a key milestone and sets the baseline for a long-term ASW surveillance program in India.

Tony Chedrawy, CEO of MetOcean Telematics, commented, “This award reflects strong confidence in MetOcean’s product as a scalable and operationally relevant autonomous ASW surveillance capability. Equally important, it highlights the strength of our partnership with KSSL. Together, we are proud to support the Government of India as it continues to strengthen its maritime security posture. We see this as the beginning of a long-term ASW program in India, with significant future growth and capability expansion potential.”

Neelesh Tungar, CEO of KSSL noted that, “Providing advanced products that meet all qualitative requirements is integral to the commitment we make to our customers. MetOcean is a trusted partner, and their product bolsters our marine systems’ capabilities.”

The initiative highlights a commitment to providing field-ready surveillance solutions aligned with national defence priorities, while simultaneously supporting long-term knowledge transfer and indigenous capability growth within the region.
