Situational awareness, ground force tracking and targeting accuracy are the most critical aspects of ensuring mission success on today’s dynamic battlefields, and they all rely on accurate and reliable navigation. Northrop Grumman Italia has developed its land navigation solutions to provide the commander with the basis for battle space control.

Evolving scenarios and increasing navigation and weapon targeting requirements for ground systems have prompted Northrop Grumman Italia to develop a family of ground navigation systems ranging from medium accuracy systems; position information in a GPS-neglected environment, through to high performance systems for reconnaissance, surveillance and target acquisition applications requiring greater accuracy. Northrop Grumman’s high and medium precision navigation systems make best useand state-of-the-art fiber-optic gyroscope technology to suit the specific application, platform and environment required by the operator.

Northrop Grumman Italia’s ground navigators are currently installed on a full range of infantry fighting vehicles and main battle tanks as part of the NCW’s modernization program.
