L&T has entered a strategic collaboration with France-based Exail to deliver an advanced Unmanned Mine Counter-Measure Suite for the Indian Navy's programme of 12 Mine Counter Measure Vessels. L&T will act as the prime contractor, while Exail serves as the technology partner contributing its globally proven MCM technologies already in operation with several navies worldwide. The programme aligns with the Government's Aatmanirbhar Bharat and Make in India initiatives, emphasising local industrial collaboration and capability development. The partnership aims to strengthen India's mine countermeasure capabilities, enhance maritime security and build a self-reliant naval defence manufacturing ecosystem in India.
This is a positive development for L&T as it secures a significant defence order from the Indian Navy, positioning the company as a key player in indigenous naval defence manufacturing. The partnership with a proven global technology provider enhances execution credibility.
