Hanwha Ocean misses Canada submarine bid but secures export path and local partnership network
Germany’s Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems has been selected as preferred bidder for Canada’s next submarine procurement project, while the Hanwha Ocean-HD Hyundai Heavy Industries team was named a backup supplier and lost a bid valued at 60 trillion won. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney called it a close decision. Hanwha Ocean said it could not overcome NATO considerations, but retained a reserve role and expanded local partnerships in Canada.
