Network with Airbus, BAE Systems and Thales at SMi’s Naval Mission Systems Technology 2016
Airbus, BAE Systems and Thales will be amongst the attendees at Naval Mission Systems Technology which will be taking place in Rome, Italy on the 14th- 15th November.
In just twelve weeks' time, this highly anticipated event will bring together military and industry experts to explore how the collection and dissemination of data from maritime helicopters, UAVs, radars and shore based sensors through C2 systems can be improved to produce an accurate and clear picture of the maritime theatre for allied forces, Smi Group said on Monday.
The complexity of this, associated with effectively coordinating the variety of operations of these systems, means that interoperability between all systems, divisions, and nations is of paramount importance.
With this playing such a vital role of enhancing maritime operations; many nations are now looking at how they can further develop their navy's capabilities as well as mitigate future challenges that may arise.
