Building on a long and successful history of developing, integrating, testing and assuring naval Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) and combat systems for the UK Royal Navy, QinetiQ is able to offer a unique set of services and solutions to meet the wider maritime mission system needs of the world's navies.

Navies have long recognised that the function and performance of the naval combat system, namely the aggregation of sensors, effectors, computers and operators employed to detect, track, identify and, where necessary, prosecute targets, is fundamental to the operational effectiveness of a warship at both a single ship and force level.

More recently, the term maritime mission system has entered mainstream use: this broader characterisation additionally encompasses all onboard information and communication systems, and a new generation of offboard systems based on net-enabled unmanned platforms.
