Sailing towards a visible horizon with networked naval navigation

Article Abstract:

Transfer of situational awareness (SA) information between co-operating land, sea, and air units is becoming increasingly imperative due to its improvised navigation safety and eased naval operations in littoral waters. The electronic chart display and information system (ECDIS) is an accepted feature of naval vessels in most major armed forces, and a number of companies are developing adaptation technologies incorporating new functionalities for bringing the sea, air, and land dimensions of SA into closer harmony at the lowest levels.

US Navy to proceed with EA-18G as Prowler replacement under risk reduction program

Article Abstract:

US Naval Air Systems Command is expected to authorize the US $1.5 billion system development and demonstration phase of the EA-18G airborne electronic attack (AEA) aircraft. The EA-18G would share its mission equipment with the EA-6B Prowler, but has many advantages which include a supersonic cruise speed, a head-up display, and hands-on-throttle-and-stick operation.
