Terma A/S has partnered with Sperry Marine to deliver the SCANTER 4603 and SCANTER 6002 series of naval surveillance radar to Seaspan Shipyards for the upcoming Canadian Coast Guard’s Multi-Purpose Icebreaker and Polar Icebreaker Programs.
Sperry Marine, a leader in surveillance radar technology and Terma A/S, a manufacturer and service provider of marine navigation systems have partnered to work with the Canadian Coast Guard to use radar technology designed for precision situational awareness, safety, and reliability.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with both Seaspan and Sperry Marine to contribute to the production of modern, capable coast guard vessels,” Per Sørensen, Senior Sales Director, Naval Sales of Terma A/S stated in a press release. “Terma’s SCANTER surveillance radar is engineered to meet the highest naval standards and ensure exceptional performance in challenging maritime environments.”
The SCANTER series of surveillance radar provides surface surveillance and medium to high level air coverage. Its design ensures the detection and tracking of very small targets in extreme northern environments and harsh Arctic weather conditions. The vessels, constructed at Seaspan Shipyards in Vancouver, play a vital role in supporting the Coast Guard’s multiple mission throughout the country, enabling search and rescue, emergency response as well as sovereignty protection.
“With over 40 years of history in supporting the Canadian Coast Guard, Sperry Marine is uniquely positioned to address the growing demand for state-of-the-art maritime surveillance and support services,” Colin Ross, Sperry Marine’s Naval Sales Director based in Canada, stated in a press release. “This project is not just about technological advancement, but also about fostering long-term operational effectiveness and strategic collaboration. It reinforces our dedication to supporting government partners in delivering secure, innovative maritime solutions.”
