Advanced assured positioning, navigation and timing solution now hardened with M-code and expanded protection against jamming
Collins Aerospace, an RTX (NYSE: RTX) business, has delivered the first six units of its NavHub™-200M to a European customer. The NavHub-200M is a mounted Assured Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (APNT) receiver designed to significantly enhance resistance against jamming and spoofing threats. The latest version features military code, or M-code, a type of encrypted signal used in military GPS systems for increased integrity and security.
NavHub-200M is the first non-International Traffic in Arms vehicular navigation system compatible with M-code receiver technology available for the international market. The receiver is designed to seamlessly interface with key vehicle sensors, including inertial measurement units and odometers, to mitigate electronic and navigation warfare threats.
"NavHub-200M brings critical M-code receiver technology to ground forces, enhancing their defense against jamming and spoofing threats," said Sandy Brown , vice president and general manager of Resilient Navigation Solutions at Collins Aerospace. "The protection from electronic attack is crucial for operational success."
To date, Collins Aerospace has delivered over 10,000 navigation systems worldwide, reinforcing its commitment to providing cutting-edge navigation solutions.
NavHub-200M is manufactured at Collins' Heidelberg, Germany facility.
