Thales to secure Norway LSV comms
SAAB has selected Thales to secure satellite communications for the Royal Norwegian Navy’s new Logistic Support Vessel (LSV), Thales announced on 18 February.
The company will supply its Modem 21 system for the vessel. The system protects satellite communications against jamming, interference and intrusion. Modem 21 complies with STANAG 4606 to provide NATO members with fully operational communication solutions.
The system will be integrated on board the LSV by SAAB's Danish subsidiary.
Modem 21 is already in use with the Royal Norwegian Navy, having been installed on its Nansen class frigates in 2011.
