Estonian companies Nortal and SensusQ have signed a memorandum of understanding with South Korean aerospace and defense company Hanwha Aerospace to create a new high-tech battlefield management system (BMS).

Nortal's employees deliver projects in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and North America.
