India Signs ₹1,943-Crore Deal With General Atomics For 2 MQ-9B Sea Guardian Drones
India has secured a significant advancement in maritime domain awareness with the signing of a ₹1,943-crore agreement with General Atomics. This deal leases two MQ-9B Sea Guardian High-Altitude Long-Endurance (HALE) RPAS to the Indian Navy, providing enhanced real-time surveillance capabilities. The acquisition underscores a commitment to bolstering naval power and underscores the increasing importance of integrated data ecosystems for regional security. This development follows ongoing strategic dialogues, as highlighted in our coverage of India’s submarine acquisition efforts, "India Nears ₹70,000-Crore Submarine Deal With Germany."

Adaptive collision-avoidance timing recognition for autonomous ship encounters using multi-evidence Bayesian backward evidence detection
Effective collision avoidance is paramount for maritime autonomous surface ships (MASSs). This study introduces a novel, multi-evidence Bayesian framework for adaptive collision-avoidance timing recognition, moving beyond reliance on fixed thresholds. By integrating maneuvering behavior, relative motion, and risk evolution data from historical AIS trajectories, the system learns encounter-specific trigger thresholds. Experiments involving 6,186 AIS encounters demonstrated avoidance onsets 6.50–8.60 minutes prior to peak collision risk, yielding adaptive thresholds ranging from 0.245 to 0.368, enhancing safety and operational efficiency.
