Connecting the Underwater Battlespace: Building the future network and data fabric
- The threat from state and non-state actors to the subsea infrastructure on which the UK and our allies rely is increasing.
- Industry is equipped to seize the technology advantage and deliver data-enabled subsea sense and protect capabilities, integrated into advanced underwater platforms, that will provide the competitive edge.
- Between Government and Industry it is now our collective responsibility to bring communications networking technologies, underwater platforms and maritime exercise and trials programmes together to prove the capabilities and set the agenda for investment in the subsea capabilities necessary for our security, stability and prosperity.
