Nous remercions l’Amiral et son équipe d’avoir pris le temps de partager leur vision sur l’avenir des drones navals et de leurs usages. Ces échanges ont constitué un temps fort, nourrissant notre ambition commune : renforcer la supériorité navale et la sécurité maritime grâce aux systèmes autonomes. Déjà adoptés par plusieurs marines à travers le monde, nos systèmes UMIS et DriX confirment la position d’Exail comme référence mondiale en matière de systèmes de lutte contre les mines et de drones maritimes pour l’hydrographie et la surveillance maritime. *****************************english version*********************************** ⚓ This week, we had the honor of welcoming to our La Garde and La Ciotat sites Vice Admiral Christophe Cluzel, Commander of the French Naval Action Force (ALFAN), accompanied by Rear Admiral 🔱 Nicolas Pannetier, in charge of mine countermeasures and seabed warfare. 🤖At La Garde, we showcased our next-generation mine countermeasure solutions through our UMIS system, with a special focus on our A18 autonomous underwater vehicles (#AUV) and our Seascan and K-Ster mine identification and neutralization systems (#ROV).

    ⚓️ Ce vendredi 5 septembre, nous avons eu le plaisir d’accueillir sur notre chantier naval de La Ciotat, Emmanuel Chiva, Délégué Général pour l’Armement, et Nicolas Drogi, Directeur de DGA TN. Cette visite intervient dans un contexte où la demande en drones maritimes de surface connaît une forte croissance, portée à la fois par les applications de défense et civiles. Avec le DriX et l’Inspector 125, Exail s’impose comme un acteur de référence, proposant des solutions autonomes déjà opérationnelles en hydrographie, surveillance maritime et lutte contre les mines. 🏭 Fort d’un outil industriel solide, Exail déploie d'ores et déjà ses drones en France comme à l’international, répondant à un carnet de commandes en forte croissance dans les domaines de la défense comme du civil. Emmanuel Chiva et Nicolas Drogi ont ainsi assisté au départ en mer du DriX O-16, notre drone transocéanique dédié notamment aux missions d’hydrographie et de surveillance maritime. Ils sont également monté à bord de l’Inspector 125, conçu pour la lutte contre les mines, avant de parcourir notre ligne de production, pleinement mobilisée pour la réalisation de nos programmes en cours. 🤝 Merci à la DGA pour cette visite et ces échanges, reflet d’une confiance renouvelée dans nos technologies et notre capacité industrielle. ************************************************************************ ⚓️ This Friday, September 5th, we had the pleasure of welcoming Emmanuel Chiva, General Delegate for Armament, and Nicolas Drogi, Director of DGA TN, to our shipyard in La Ciotat. This visit comes at a time when the demand for unmanned surface vessels (#USVs) is growing rapidly, driven by both defense and civilian applications. With the DriX and the Inspector 125, Exail has established itself as a key player, delivering autonomous solutions already operational in hydrography, maritime surveillance, and mine countermeasures. 🏭 Backed by a strong industrial base, Exail is already deploying its drones in France and internationally, fulfilling a rapidly expanding order book across both defense and civil markets. During the visit, Emmanuel Chiva and Nicolas Drogi witnessed the departure at sea of the DriX O-16, our transoceanic drone dedicated in particular to hydrography and maritime surveillance missions. At dock, they also toured the Inspector 125, designed for mine countermeasures, before exploring our production line, which is fully mobilized to deliver our current programs. 🤝 Many thanks to the DGA for this visit and these valuable exchanges, a reflection of renewed trust in our technologies and industrial capabilities.
