Integer Technologies has introduced its DIGIT Mission Assurance Platform, designed to support decision-making and mission planning for naval vessels operating in distributed maritime environments.
DIGIT Mission Assurance Platform supports both autonomous and human-in-the-loop operations. It aims to maintain operational capability in denied, degraded, intermittent, and limited (DDIL) communication scenarios.

The platform employs high-fidelity digital twins and real-time environmental forecasting, integrating live sensor inputs with physics-based models.
This setup enables vessels and their operators to automatically adjust to emerging threats and maintain situational awareness for both crewed and uncrewed systems, even when standard communication lines are unavailable.
DIGIT Mission Assurance Platform is compatible with a range of systems, including both surface and underwater vehicles. Integer Technologies states the system can be applied from individual ships to large groups, such as entire fleets.
The company emphasises DIGIT Mission Assurance Platform’s scalability, interoperability, and adaptability for current and future naval assets like the newly announced guided missile battleship and future frigate.

By GlobalDataThe initial release of the platform includes three modules tailored for different mission requirements. The “DIGIT COMMAND” module serves shore-side commanders by supplementing existing command and control structures with a decision-support layer across operational theatres.
“DIGIT CORE” provides on-board perception, planning, and resolution for individual platforms, enabling ongoing evaluation of internal systems like propulsion and power.
The “DIGIT UxV” module handles mission planning for unmanned surface and underwater vehicles, modelling the interaction between platforms and their environments to enable resilience even when communications are disrupted.
Integer Technologies co-founder and CEO Duke Hartman said: “The next generation of defence technology will be defined by software that can anticipate, not just respond. From platform-level introspection to global fleet orchestration, DIGIT provides the software architecture to win the fight.
“It represents a fundamental shift towards mission-aware technology, giving operators and autonomous systems the foresight to make confident decisions to deliver successful mission outcomes.”
Currently, DIGIT Mission Assurance Platform is supporting US Navy UxV efforts regarding unmanned vehicles, including mission assurance work for the Metron-developed Lancet long-range multi-mission unmanned undersea vehicle.
