Helsing to acquire Blue Ocean.

Helsing, a defence AI company, agreed to acquire Blue Ocean, a developer and operator of persistent remote autonomous solutions for the maritime domain. Financial terms were not disclosed. The strategic acquisition of Blue Ocean will speed up Helsing's plans for AI-powered autonomous systems further. It follows Helsing's launch of its autonomous underwater glider, the SG-1 Fathom, earlier in the year, and its successful testing at BUTEC, an underwater military test range, in July. Just four months ago, Helsing also announced it is building a new Resilience Factory in Plymouth as part of a £350m investment in the UK.
