CS Group has integrated a naval version of the new maritime navigation system onto a navy vessel and demonstrated its capability in an operational setting.
CS Group naval systems business line director Gilles Rigal said: “CS Group is an expert in the design and integration of secure navigation systems, and has supplied real-time navigation computers, military-grade GPS receivers and other solutions to the French Navy and Naval Group for many years. This partnership with Thales allows us to offer an innovative, robust and resilient maritime inertial navigation system for surface ships.”
According to Thales, the system will provide the navies with accurate pointing, gyrocompass, location, and navigation capability.
