Lockheed Martin Canada has received a contract to replace the combat management system on the Chilean Navy's three Type 23 frigates, the company announced on 23 May.
The contract will see the company deliver its CMS 330 combat management system along with select subsystems for Chile's Frigate Combat Management System Replacement programme.
The CMS 330 is a derivative of a Lockheed Martin Canada legacy product that was originally developed in Canada in the 1980’s for the original build of the Royal Canadian Navy’s Halifax class ships. The system has an open architecture design which adapts to a variety of subsystems, and provides for total system programme performance, complete with a full suite of training systems and logistical support.
The selection by the Chilean Navy now places the CMS 330 on four classes of ships across three different navies, including Canada and New Zealand.
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.
Adarga’s Vantage information analysis tool is in service with the UK MoD and individual UK forces. It builds on the company’s Knowledge Platform which processes, organises and analyses open source material, as well as information held by the user’s military, security and intelligence services.
