The Royal Navy is looking for industry partners to take part in the Robotic Experimentation and Prototyping using Maritime Unmanned Systems in Portugal in September 2024. This tender presents opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the field of military research and technology to collaborate with the Royal Navy and Multi-Domain Integrated Systems (MDIS) for operational experimentation.
