Cheswick, PA – March 25, 2026 – Curtiss-Wright today announced that it has signed a Teaming Agreement with Hanwha Ocean of Korea for long-term cooperation on the Canadian Patrol Submarine Project for Towed Array Handling Systems to support KSS-III submarines. Work under this agreement will be performed by Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Systems, based in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.

“We are proud to further our partnership with Hanwha Ocean through this Teaming Agreement. Leveraging our long-proven Canadian expertise in complex systems integration and advanced handling equipment, we are pleased to support next-generation submarine systems with international partners, expanding high-value engineering and manufacturing work in Mississauga while developing Canada’s broader defense industrial capacity,” said David Micha, Sr. Vice President & General Manager, Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Systems.

Curtiss-Wright has supplied the Towed Array Handling Systems to the KSS-III submarine, one of the most capable ocean-going, diesel-electric platforms, to the Republic of Korea Navy since 2011.

“These partnerships reflect our long-term commitment to working alongside Canadian industry to deliver meaningful and lasting value. By partnering with leading Canadian companies across critical capability areas, we are not only strengthening Canada’s defense industrial base, but also supporting innovation, advanced manufacturing, and the development of a highly skilled workforce. We see this as part of a broader effort to contribute to Canada’s long-term economic growth and sovereign defense capability, aligned with the country’s national priorities.”– Glenn Copeland, CEO, Hanwha Defence Canada
