Moreover, we are available for this, especially in such a delicate sector in Brazil, which is the tricky part of licensing, “Zanella revealed.

Amazul is a strategic defense company, linked to the Ministry of Defense and the Navy. It is developing the Submarine development program with Brazilian Nuclear Propulsion (SN-BR) and the Navy Nuclear Program.

Amazul finished the executive project and prepares with the Directorate General of Marine Nuclear and Technological Development the phase C. It is the detailed design phase, which has an estimated duration of two years.
