In an era where maritime threats are shifting from deep blue waters to littoral and coastal regions, Drass and Leonardo have joined forces to address these challenges head-on, entering a strategic partnership. The result sees Drass DS8 Swimmer Delivery Vehicle (SDV), a stealthy submersible designed for patrol and intelligence missions, now configurable with optional light torpedo launch capabilities. Featuring two launch tubes equipped for Leonardo’s Black Scorpion light torpedoes, DS8 now delivers an advanced, combat-ready platform for Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) and maritime security missions.
