Germany’s Thyssenkrupp, which manufactures the Israeli Navy’s submarines, will invest millions of euros in the local company VSense Technologies in order to provide it with manufacturing, maintenance, inspection and repairing abilities of equipment installed in the navy’s submarines.
The cooperation is with Atlas Electric, the marine technology division of Thyssenkrupp, which mainly focuses on sonar, command and weapons systems for maritime platform.
VSense technologies is based in Petah Tikva and specializes in the design, production and integration for military, defense, and civilian naval industry clients. In addition to Israel, Thyssenkrupp has been building submarines for the German and Norwegian navies.
Thanks to the new cooperation, the Israeli company will be able to acquire independent manufacturing technologies in the pertinent areas, thus becoming an official supplier of the Ministry of Defense. VSense will purchase equipment from Atlas Electric and also receive the necessary training.
