Thales’ main installed base with the Latvian Armed Forces is the current sonar suite on the five minehunter vessels of the Latvian Navy. These sonars are a vital and core capacity within the Latvian Navy safeguarding sea routes from explosive objects, mainly left from the 2nd World War, but also potential new objects.
Thales also recently won a contract to modernize the sighting and observation system on the CVR-T platform that the Latvian Government procured from the UK government some years back. With this modernization the Latvian Army will have a state-of-the-art system to support the warfighter for years to come.
