Indra will work with Atlas Elektronik to provide five satellite communications (SATCOM) terminals to the Germany Navy's K130 Braunschweig class corvettes under a three-year project, it was announced on 6 May. The company was selected following an RfP process.
Indra will supply its TNX-100 terminal for the project, which covers the manufacturing, integration and testing of the SATCOM terminals, electronic documentation as well as training for crews.
The terminal has two stabilised 1.5m-diametre dishes and can simultaneously transmit and receive up to 4Mbps.
The TNX-100 terminal has already been implemented in several Spanish vessels, including the F-100 frigates and the Juan Carlos I strategic projection ship.
Indra has also supplied SATCOM systems to the German Navy in the past. It has equipped the F-122 frigates and the six Elbe class replenishment ships with these types of systems, as well as the German U212 class submarines.
The airborne three-domain, the two ground-based and the ¼ ATR OpenVPX-based cross-domain systems were engineered to provide real-time security across multi-domain operations.
DARPA’s Mission-Integrated Network Control (MINC) programme was set up to develop an autonomous tactical network and enable critical data flow in contested environments.
Why space is an essential part of modern military capabilities
Defence-secure mixed reality headsets can save hours, or even weeks, of travel time to fix defunct equipment or get subject experts effectively “on-site” where they are needed.
The Joint Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device Electronic Warfare (JCREW) counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) and Drone Restricted Access Using Known Electromagnetic Warfare (DRAKE) counter-UAS (CUAS) systems are mounted and dismounted RF jammers.
