Raytheon Anschütz has been awarded a contract for navigation and control systems for the six batch 2 type 214 submarines for the Republic of Korea Navy (RoKN), which have been contracted with ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems’shipyard HDW. The boats will be built at Daewoo Shipbuilding and Hyundai Heavy Industries in Korea.
Under the terms of the contract Raytheon Anschütz will supply a navigation data management system, navigation consoles with radar and WECDIS function as well as battery monitoring, mast control, various sensors and inertial navigation systems. As the core component of the integrated solution, the data management collects and pre-processes various data from the sensors in real time in order to distribute them within the system.
The scope of the contract also covers customer-specific development, programme and obsolescence
management, documentation (integrated logistic support), testing and setting to work. In support of cost effectiveness and availability the navigation and control system features a combination of various degradable navigation sensors. Raytheon Anschütz can refer to a solid reputation in system design and high accuracy
standards, which have been proven during sea-trials of former submarine projects. Meanwhile Raytheon Anschütz has equipped more than 100 submarines worldwide, including the German Navy’s latest fleet of Class U212A submarine.
First Export Success for the COBRA Radar in the UAE
Art International EWIV has been awarded a contract from the United Arab Emirates Armed Forces for the supply and commissioning of 3 Counter Battery Radars (COBRA). The COBRA high mobility weapon
location radar will protect UAE Armed Forces on the move. COBRA was developed for France, Germany and UK as the first multifunctional counter battery radar in the world with a fully active phased array antenna, enabling accurate multiple targets detection within a short reaction time. Its modular architecture provides
high reliability and system availability.

During all live firing trials COBRA achieved performance values (location range as well as detection and location accuracy) in excess of the COBRA specifications. Deployed in several out-of-area operations including UN missions, the German systems are involved in the Defence Against Mortar Attacks (DAMA) initiative that is part of the NATO Conference of National Armament Directors’ Programmes of Work for the Defence against Terrorism. French systems are in operation in Lebanon, British systems in Iraq.
Euro-Art International EWIV was formed in 2007 as a European Economic Interest Group and responsible for global marketing and sales of the COBRA system (except OCCAR). The Euro-Art International members are EADSDeutschland GmbH (Munich, Germany) and Thales Air Systems S.A.
