The Only Undersea Focused Naval Event in Asia
UDT Asia is the most comprehensive naval undersea event in Asia. With coverage on submarine procurement, unmanned underwater vehicles, ASW, maritime patrol and surveillance, the conference and exhibition will deliver a holistic view of how the navies of Asia are transforming and modernising for new roles in the underwater environment.
From the organisation that has brought you UDT Europe, UDT Asia will further discussions on the technological and operational needs of the undersea defence community in the region. The event brings leading members of the industry, naval submarine flag officers, programme managers and engineering staff to discuss the advancements and procurement priorities for the Asian market.

- Senior Members of Defence Research Establishments and Government Agencies
- Senior officials from maritime agencies
- Defence Industry
The UDT Asia conference will be designed to highlight a comprehensive approach towards maritime security – the convergence of surface and subsea fleets for operations
Topics will include:
- Strategic impact of new undersea fleets – perspectives on plans, policy and doctrine
- Countering asymmetric threats
- ASW

- Weapons and countermeasures (including launch systems)
- Safety and rescue
- Operations and training
We will further explore the parametres of the underwater warfare concept by evaluating:
- Actions by submarines actions, and anti-submarine warfare, i.e. warfare between submarines, other submarines and surface ships; combat airplanes and helicopters may also be engaged when launching special dive-bombs and torpedo-missiles against submarines;
- Underwater special operations, considering:
- Military diving sabotage against ships and ports.
- Anti-frogman techniques.
- Reconnaissance tasks.
