Developed in partnership with the Technology Innovation Institute via the Naval Innovation Hub, Mitras is ADSB’s advanced lightweight armour system engineered for the FA-400 high-speed patrol vessel. Designed, manufactured, and validated in the UAE in just 40 days, the system combines advanced materials research and AI-assisted development to deliver enhanced protection and operational resilience for demanding maritime missions.
Mitras - Advanced Armour System: Designed by TII in Partnership with ADSB via the Naval Innovation Hub TII's Advanced Materials Research Center is proud to be recognised by ADSB for the development of Mitras, an advanced armor system that reflects what is possible when deep research capability is applied with purpose and precision. Developed, manufactured and tested entirely in the UAE, Mitras is a lightweight protection system engineered for marine applications. Designed for the ADSB FA-400, a high-speed Patrol Vessel used for search-and-rescue, rapid response, and military tasks, the system was purpose-built for environments where lightweight construction and high protection are both essential. Built in just 40 calendar days, it was developed using advanced material characterization, numerical simulations, and AI-assisted R&D tools to accelerate the process without compromising on performance. The result exceeded expectations on every level, a protection system validated against armor-piercing rounds up to 12.7mm, purpose-built to address the nation's needs and strengthen its resilience. Mitras is a reflection of TII's commitment to delivering sovereign, world-class research that moves from concept to capability at the speed the moment demands. #TII #Innovation #Technology #AdvancedArmor #AI #NavalInnovation
