Submarine sonar and navigation systems 212CD

The German and Norwegian Type 212CD submarines will receive active sonar systems and ground navigation technology from Kongsberg Maritime. As the company announced, the contract was awarded by the general contractor thyssenkrupp Marine Systems (tkMS) and the joint venture kta naval systems, in which Kongsberg and tkMS/ATLAS Elektronik work together.

Nach Information von Kongsberg besteht das Technologiepaket aus Minenvermeidungs- und Navigationssonaren (MANS) SA9510S MKII sowie einem Bodennavigationsgerät (BNS) mit Fächerecholoten EM2040 MIL und einem Fächerecholotsystem EA640. Diese Sensoren sollen Informationen für das ORCCA-Navigationssystem von kta naval systems liefern, um einen autarken Betrieb der U-Boote unter Wasser zu ermöglichen.

The command and weapon deployment system (FüWes) ORCCA enables operators to carry out integrated data analysis from a variety of systems on board via a multifunctional console - and thus fast, well-founded decision-making processes, says Kongsberg. ORCCA is the most modern FüWes for non-nuclear submarines on the market with maximum adaptability and the highest level of IT security.
