What's Happening?
Advanced Navigation has introduced a new line of defense-ready Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) with integrated Electronic Protection (EP) capabilities to counter Electromagnetic Warfare threats. The EP range is designed to ensure mission continuity
amidst GNSS jamming and spoofing threats. The systems are engineered for seamless integration into NATO's land, air, and sea platforms, providing reliable positioning for critical decision-making. The rollout includes establishing PNT Centres of Excellence across the UK, US, and Europe to address NATO's evolving operational needs and enhance collaborations with regional defense leaders.
Why It's Important?
The introduction of EW resilient INS systems is crucial for maintaining navigation integrity in high-threat environments. As GNSS jamming and spoofing become more prevalent, NATO forces require advanced solutions to safeguard their operations. The EP range offers real-time detection of GNSS interference and adaptive filtering to sustain positioning accuracy, enhancing the reliability and resilience of defense systems. This development supports NATO's strategic objectives by ensuring continuous operational capabilities and strengthening defense readiness against emerging threats.
What's Next?
Advanced Navigation's EP range will continue to be deployed across NATO platforms, with ongoing collaborations to enhance onshore capabilities within allied nations. The establishment of PNT Centres of Excellence will facilitate further advancements in navigation technology, supporting NATO's defense strategies. As the systems are integrated into new-build and legacy platforms, NATO forces can expect improved operational efficiency and resilience in contested environments.
