Safran is one of the main participants in the OCEAN2020 consortium, which won a major contract as part of the European Commission’s 2017 Preparatory Action on Defence Research (PADR) initiative. This European Commission’s OCEAN2020 project, with 35 million euros in funding, aims to develop a technology demonstrator that will validate the concept of deploying a complete array of drone systems (air, surface and submarine) for surveillance in a maritime environment.
