On 10 January, the Pakistan Navy (PN) announced that it tested a new unmanned surface vessel (USV) and a loitering munition during an exercise that was recently held in the North Arabian Sea.
In a statement, the PN Director General of Public Affairs (DGPR) stated that the loitering munition “successfully engaged and destroyed surface targets,” while the USV provided “extreme maneuverability, precision navigation and weather resilience.”
Quwa learned that both the USV and the loitering munition were sourced from Pakistani private companies, i.e., Woot-Tech and Sysverve Aerospace, respectively.
In this exclusive report, Quwa was able to learn a number of key details about both the unnamed USV and the Mudamir-LR loitering munition (LM), as well as the PN’s broader plans for leveraging new unmanned platforms.
