Integrated Bridge and Navigation Systems
Northrop Grumman’s advanced marine technology is relied on by our customers for safe navigation and multi-mission support capabilities. Our Integrated Platform Management Systems provide real time monitoring, control and diagnostics of the status of a vessel and all its machinery.
Our defence tailored Integrated Bridge System seamlessly combines data from nautical sensors and military applications for optimal situational awareness, navigation and C4ISR.
Command and Control
Northrop Grumman has powered the core C2 systems for the UK MoD and NATO for over 25 years.
Our web-based C2 solutions create a foundation for the next-generation of Agile C2 systems that will enhance decision-making through service-based incorporation of new data sources. This agility will allow the integration with emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
F-35 Lightning II
As a principal partner for the F-35 not only do we provide much of the aircraft’s situational awareness, but also through our provision of the aircraft’s communications and battlespace networks capability, no-one is better placed to integrate F-35 into the battlespace.
