Under the contract, Sagem will supply three kinds of instruments for each submarine. They would include the Series 30 SMS (1) multi-sensor tracking optronics mast, with a wide-array infrared imager and high-definition colour camera; Series 20 APS (2) attack periscope, also incorporating a high-definition colour camera and Series 10 CSR (3) navigation radar mast.

The systems intended for Brazil’s new submarines also feature advanced technologies like integrated digital imaging system, high-resolution panoramic display, user-friendly operation from multifunction combat system consoles, etc, the company said.
