Sperry Marine has strengthened its portfolio of military navigation solutions with the release of Additional Military Layers(AML) for its VisionMaster series of Radars and ECDIS.
The AMLs have been developed to allow defence and naval users to take advantage of Sperry’s commercial radar systems on demanding military assignments on small and large vessels. The latest enhancement supports the display of AMLs created to support both command and control and provide digital navigation systems that ensure the best situational awareness available for marine operations.
By combining the navigational features and functions from VisionMaster with enhanced features and high performance configurations, VisionMaster Naval Radars and ECDIS offer high specification military functionality with a lower total cost of ownership than many naval systems.
The VisionMaster Radar and ECDIS include a number of enhancements designed for naval operations. Among the features is ‘Red First Strike’ functionality, providing an immediate indication of fast moving targets, such as fixed and rotary wing aircraft and fast attack craft, by highlighting them in red.
A Target Intercept feature allows the operator to plan and execute intercept manoeuvres between one vessel and another including from ‘ownship’ or from one tracked target or AIS target to another. This improves the operator’s reaction time by simplifying the identification of any potential threat.
If it becomes necessary to impose radar silence during a mission, the operator can use the ‘Freeze Frame’ function to display a frozen picture of the radar situation immediately before the radar silence was imposed.
To overcome the challenge of station-keeping and monitoring surrounding vessels, the radar operator is able to set up a sector for each vessel nearby which will allow them to see at a glance if any vessel has moved out of its correct position.
