Updated: Mar 22, 2022

The fire-ravaged US-bound cargo ship that was transporting thousands of supercars including Porsches and Lamborghinis has sunk in the middle of the Atlantic. The Felicity Ace sank about 250 miles off Portugal's Azores Islands as it was being towed, just 13 days after a fire broke out on February 18. A Portuguese Air Force helicopter evacuated the 22 crew members when the fire first broke out, setting the ship adrift.

Early detection thermal cameras are far superior to traditional systems that alert to fire only after the visible consequences of smoke and flame are present. Planck Vision System cameras can help to prevent the destruction of goods and the immeasurable loss of life by surveilling for abnormal heat before fires erupt.
