Submarine data leak

Opens investigation0 Comments

Australian media reports DCNS is hit by a massive leak of secret data on its submarines. 22,400 leaked pages detail the combat capability of the Scorpene-class DCNS submarine designed for the Indian navy, variants of which are used by Malaysia and Chile. DCNS says it has launched an inquiry:

This inquiry will determine the precise nature of the documents which have been leaked, the potential damage to our customers as well as those responsible.
