The Hellenic Center for Defense Innovation (HCDI) has issued two new calls for expressions of interest – one for the development of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for cargo transport and another for a transient voltage suppression system to protect critical ship equipment from sudden voltage fluctuations.
Earlier in March, the HCDI also invited proposals for the development of unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) and a battle management system (BMS) for the Hellenic Navy.
These initiatives are part of the long-term procurement program for 2025–2037, set to be presented by the government in early April.
A state-owned entity under the Defense Ministry, the HCDI is also involved in developing the Centaur anti-drone system – produced by the Hellenic Aerospace Industry (EAB) – as well as the new combat uniform unveiled a few months ago.
