South African Navy to get OSI T-ACT systems
OSI Maritime Systems has won a contract to supply its Tactical-Asset Control and Tracking (T-ACT) to the South African Navy, the company announced on 16 February.
The T-ACT systems will be installed on rigid-hull inflatable boats that will be used by the navy to support maritime security operations.
T-ACT is a navigation and command, control and communication suite that is suitable for small craft operations for border security and maritime security agencies. It is a fully-scalable small craft HMI that can be embedded with ECPINS Small Craft, a variant of ECPINS designed specifically for use in confined space environments and with an emphasis on tactical navigation functionality
Combined with a secure data link, the T-ACT system can enable communication between a small craft and its mother ship beyond the line-of-sight.
