Counter-UAS technology

Advanced Navigation announces €16m KONGSBERG supply agreement

Boreas inertial navigation units are intended for KONGSBERG’s PROTECTOR counter-drone platforms.

Advanced Navigation announced a €16 million agreement with KONGSBERG on 22 September. The supplier says it will provide hundreds of Boreas fibre-optic gyroscope inertial navigation systems for PROTECTOR counter-UAS platforms.

Why it matters

The announcement highlights demand for positioning and orientation technology intended to support counter-drone systems when satellite navigation is disrupted. A navigation subsystem contract is distinct from an order for complete counter-UAS installations.

Evidence limits

The value and quantity description are supplier-reported. The announcement reviewed does not establish completed deliveries, named end-user quantities or independently tested performance.
