Submarines of the 21st Century face an
ever-increasing range of missions. By defi-
nition, they have to operate in the chal-
lenging conditions of the littorals, as well
as in the blue ocean.
As in the first 100 years of submarine op-
erations, the need to be able to find,
track and defeat enemy surface ships and
submarines remains paramount.
M S I - 90 U M k 2
The MSI-90U Mk 2 Submarine Combat
Management System is designed for 21st
Century operational and lean manning
requirements. The system typically
comprises three to five Multi-Function
Consoles. This number can easily be
adjusted upwards or downwards to meet
the customer’s operational concept or to
fit the available space.
The basic design philosophy, augmented
with operational experience from the
legascy MSI-90U system, has resulted
in a solution with the following system
architecture features:

The need for efficient, effective and af-
fordable high-quality training of armed
forces personnel will continue to in-
crease over the next decade as threats,
operational requirements, and equip-
ment capabilities continually evolve.
Real-life training using operational
equipment often presents too many
challenges including: risks to personnel
safety and equipment damage; the risk
of compromising operational security;
and limited access to over-stretched
operational platforms for training.
Everywhere budgets are being squeezed,
with naval forces being required to
provide increased effectiveness for less
money. Fortunately simulation technol-
ogy has now evolved to a level where
highly-realistic scenarios can be used to
meet key requirements including: train-
ing; decision making; development of
strategy, tactics and procedures; formula-
tion and validation of concepts of opera-
tions; mission rehearsal; and after-action
review.
Trainers and scenarios can be specifically
tailored to allow warfighters to prepare
for every situation, from important
procedural training to challenging,
high-stress, combat missions where the
immediate action drills critical to survival
can be developed and practiced. Such
exercises using validated tactics and
procedures can be re-run many times to
develop, build and maintain core skills in
a safe training environment.
Simulation is highly responsive to the
demands of the operational requirement
and can be customized to provide on-
demand training ranging from dedi-
cated, single-operator, part-task training,
through team and sub-team training and
up to large fleet and task force synthetic
training in a live, virtual and constructive
(LVC) environment.

As real shipboard equipment and simula-

tor platform technologies converge, so
do the shipboard and simulator train-
ing environments. Simulator training
in highly-realistic operational scenarios
presents a shorter route to competency
and force readiness.

- N av i gat i on Co m bat System
Sea COMMAND is a compact system for
safe navigation combined with naval
tactical support, including control of
weapons, radars and electro-optical
sensors, for small to medium high speed
craft.
Sea COMMAND provides increased
situation awareness, operator efficiency
and lean manning. This is achieved by
true multi-function operator positions,
with user defined screen layouts, which
may be optimized for any task, like the
navigator to use the Remote Weapons
Station (RWS) for navigation planning
and its IR capabilities at night for safe
navigation.
Radar targets are engaged rapidly and
confirmed visually in the chart. At Multi
Target Scenarios, tracks are prioritized
and Track Management Functionality is
available.
The High Speed Navigation System up-
dates charts and radar plots in a timely
manner, paramount at high speeds in
littoral waters.
The Open Backbone Architecture enab-
les the integration of various on-board
devices and video distribution. Thus,
Sea COMMAND can also serve as the
Electronic Backbone System of the boat.

Sea COMMAND takes integration to

another level through its seamless inte-
gration between the navigation chart
and the RWS. Low latency video enables
the gunner to aim at any position in the
electronic map or as directed by a radar
echo or an EO sensor.

KONGSBERG’s MCM systems support
all operation of mine hunting or mine
sweeping, from planning and prepara-
tion, via operation, to reporting and
evaluation done either from dedicated
MCM vessels or organic MCM.
The MCM C2 system is fully integrated to
all sensors and uses all available informa-
tion, being historical-, tactical-, environ-
mental- and sensor information to give
the most real data to the operators. The
C2 system together with a KONGSBERG
DP system makes it safe to operate
within the minefield with low risk to
personnel and equipment.
Dedicated MCM vessels
KONGSBERG can supply:
- Integrated Navigation Bridge
- Dynamic Positioning system (DP)
- Mine Warfare Data Centre
- MCM C2 Tactical System
- MCM sonar
- Minesniper One-Shot Mine
Disposal system
- Optional Hugin or Remus
AUVs

- MCM C2 system
- Hugin 1000 AUV

Our systems are based on open systems
architecture largely based on COTS, this
makes it convenient to integrate our
systems to any ship configurations being

The C-Scope USP System includes a
unique portfolio of high performance
active and passive sonars designed by
KONGSBERG especially for surveillance
applications. KONGSBERG sonars are
built for the special purpose of sur-
veillance and therefore have optimal
frequencies and bandwidths for reliable
long range detection in challenging
coastal areas and reverberant conditions
typically found in littoral waters and
harbors.
Being part of the C-Scope family of
KONGSBERG maritime surveillance
systems means that the C-Scope USP
System benefit from proven C-Scope sur-
veillance and interoperability capabilities
and data from the widest possible choice
of sensors. This includes radar and AIS
information as well as live satellite feeds
in order to improve the confidence of the
underwater tactical picture and reduce
the false alarm rate.

The C-Scope USP System employs ad-

vanced sensor technology and process-
ing algorithms. Even in the adverse
conditions encountered in littoral waters
the system is capable of providing early
detection with low false alarm rate which
is the most important quality factor in
order to provide sufficient time for inter-
ception of the identified threats.

The performance of an Integrated
Combat System (ICS) relies on the
performance of the Combat Manage-
ment System and the connected sub-
systems (i.e. sensors and effectors). In
order to achieve the best possible ICS
performance an optimal Combat System
Integration (CSI) process is of vital
importance.
Many ship-yards are no longer able to
perform such a task alone due to the vast
complexity of today’s Integrated Com-
bat Systems and lack of appropriate CSI
experience. KONGSBERG has for a period
of more than 40 years built up such
expertise and is fully capable of taking
the ICS responsibility for a submarine or
a surface ship.
The CSI process will normally comprise
the following activities, where KONGS-
BERG can be responsible for the techni-
cal and functional integration of the CMS
with the CS Sub-systems.
In the Test & Verification Phase:
• Combat System Integration and Test
- Perform Risk Mitigation Tests
- Providing a Land-Based Test Facility
- Perform CS/CMS System Test
- Planning and preparation of Yard
Integration and Test
• Combat System Yard Integration and
Test
- Set-to-Work and HAT for the CMS
- Support to shipyard during CS
Sub-system Yard work
- Functional Chain Testing
- Sea Acceptance Test (SAT) support
The main strategy of the CSI is a strict
control of the interfaces between the
CMS and the connected CS Sub-systems
and to verify these interfaces prior to
installation on board the actual platform
through a series of Risk Mitigation Tests.

In the Engineering Phase:

• Combat System Engineering
- End User Requirements Analysis
- Define Combat System Architecture
- Provide support to ship-yard
- Development of ICS Interface
Requirement Specifications
- Develop a CS/CMS Test & Verifi-
cation Plan
