SAES, with its capabilities in hydroacoustics and underwater technology, has played a key role in the development of the S-81 submarine, Isaac Peral, which was recently delivered by Navantia to the Spanish Navy. Sara Garcia, our Head of Digital Transformation and Innovation, has been recently interviewed on Cadena SER radio. She mentions SAES’s involvement in the development of sonar systems and technology for the S-81 submarine, focused on acoustic detection and the submarine’s discretion.

Sara Garcia highlights in the interview the importance of innovation in a technology company like SAES and mentions examples of using technology to solve complex problems, such as the development of a diver detection sonar to protect ports and ships from terrorist threats. She also talks about the R&D+i projects in which SAES participates, such as underwater drones and the application of unmanned vehicles in offshore wind farms, as well as the ETC program for the development of European corvettes. In addition, concludes Sara, “SAES collaborates with universities, companies and technology centres to keep up to date with the latest innovations.”
