Advanced Navigation, a global leader in assured positioning, navigation and timing (APNT) and autonomous systems, has introduced a new line of defense-ready inertial navigation systems (INS), featuring integrated Electronic Protection (EP) capabilities. Purpose-built to counter electromagnetic warfare (EW) threats, the EP product range ensures mission continuity and confidence amidst a global surge in GNSS jamming and spoofing engagements.
The EP range includes:
- Boreas D Series – including the Boreas D50, D70, and D90 fiber-optic gyroscope (FOG)-based INS. Engineered for high-threat operational theatres, the Boreas D series supports multiple vehicle types, linking to Battlefield Management Systems (BMS) and Health and Usage Monitoring Systems (HUMS), enabling comprehensive logistical and combat management of PNT.
- Certus Evo – an ultra-high accuracy MEMS GNSS/INS system. Delivering superior performance in a compact, low-SWaP-C form factor, the Certus Evo is ideal for applications demanding navigation, stabilization and pointing under high-dynamics conditions.
The rollout builds on Advanced Navigation’s announcement to establish PNT Centers of Excellence (COE) across the UK, US and Europe, a strategic move to directly address the evolving operational needs of NATO forces, and turbocharge collaborations with regional defense and technology leaders to build onshore capability from within allied nations.
“Countering signal jamming and spoofing requires solutions that are several steps ahead – we must evolve our defense systems to align with battlefield realities. This means embedding Electronic Protection into the foundation of every system.“said Maximilian Doemling, Chief Product Officer at Advanced Navigation.
“Our new Electronic Protection range takes our proven inertial navigation technology and combines it with advanced capabilities to detect and neutralize interference in real time. The array of options allows integrators and primes to tailor the navigation solution to their platform’s mission profile, threat environment, and SWaP-C requirements.
For defense operators, this means more reliability and resilience in high-threat situations.“
Electronic Protection: “Zig When The Threat Zags”
NATO continues to face expanding threats – both visible and invisible – across land, sea, and air. In response, Advanced Navigation’s systems are already in deployment with multiple defense partners, providing reliable positioning for critical decision-making in the most challenging operational environments.
To further counter the growing threat of GNSS jamming and spoofing, the EP range brings a suite of advanced capabilities designed to safeguard navigation integrity:
- “Zig when the threat Zags”: While adversaries create GNSS signal attacks (the ZAG), the EP range provides real-time detection of GNSS interference, cryptographic validation to identify spoofing, and adaptive filtering to sustain positioning integrity (the ZIG).
- Stay ahead of interference: A built-in spectrum analyzer provides real-time monitoring of the RF spectrum with configurable notch filters, allowing users to manually or automatically control interference mitigation.
- Faster deployments, quicker decisions: The EP range incorporates dual-antenna, multi-band GNSS receivers, supporting up to three frequency bands (L1/L2/L5) for improved satellite visibility and robustness in cluttered or high-interference zones.
- Continuous accuracy in dynamic conditions: Advanced Navigation’s proprietary sensor fusion draws on sophisticated algorithms to interpret and filter sensor data, dynamically weighing the input from each sensor and adjusting in real time based on reliability scores, environmental conditions, and operational context. This ensures continuous, high-confidence state estimation even when GNSS signals are lost, degraded, or distorted.
Mission-Ready Across NATO’s Land, Air and Sea Platforms
The EP range is engineered for seamless integration into new-build and legacy defense platforms across multiple domains:
- Defending Ground: Combat vehicles, UGVs, artillery, C-UAS and radar pointing systems
- Defending Air: ISR payloads and UAVs
- Defending Maritime: USVs and autonomous underwater systems
Defense-Grade PNT Delivered at Speed and Scale
Globally, governments, NATO, and industry leaders are making resilient PNT technologies a baseline requirement – not a strategic afterthought – as they become essential for both combat operations and training in today’s contested environments.
In September 2025, a coalition of U.S. aviation and maritime stakeholders raised urgent concerns over the surge in GNSS jamming and spoofing incidents affecting civilian airspace and international shipping lanes. The U.S. Federal Communications Commission announced plans to initiate a formal inquiry into alternative and redundant PNT systems to reduce national dependence on GNSS. Meanwhile, Australia has taken major steps to strengthen its warfighting edge with the establishment of the Joint Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) Directorate, now at initial operating capability. In the UK, the government is working to implement the framework for Greater PNT Resilience.
Vertical integration in Advanced Navigation’s manufacturing process enables delivery at unprecedented speed and scale – ready in weeks, not years – minimizing program delays and accelerating time-to-field.
Advanced Navigation backs its solutions with a three-year warranty, long-term roadmap support, and configuration stability to meet the procurement and lifecycle needs of defense primes. Customers gain:
- Future-ready INS systems built for high-threat theatres
- Tailored application guidance and integration across multi-domain platforms
- In-field expertise, responsive engineering support and account management
- Confidence in supply chain continuity and sustainment
