125 years of the Submarine Service. Today, we celebrate our people. The crews who serve in silence. The families who support them. The veterans who paved the way. And every submariner who as helped shape 125 years of history. ➡️royalnavy.mod.uk/organisatio…

BAE Systems Anti Threat System (BATS) łączy funkcje wykrywania, podejmowania decyzji i rażenia w ramach jednolitego podejścia, pomagając w wykrywaniu, śledzeniu i neutralizacji bezzałogowych zagrożeń. Dzięki fuzji danych z wielu sensorów w wiarygodny, wspólny obraz sytuacji operacyjnej, BATS wspiera szybsze i bardziej świadome podejmowanie decyzji oraz umożliwia realizację zadań obrony warstwowej przy użyciu zintegrowanych środków typu soft-kill i hard-kill. Jego modułowa i skalowalna architektura pozwala na adaptację do zmieniających się zagrożeń oraz wymogów operacyjnych, zarówno w środowisku wojskowym, jak i cywilnym.

A section of a Dreadnought Class submarine moved through the centre of Barrow-in-Furness, dwarfing the streets around it. These are the largest and most complex submarines we've ever built. Behind every section is the skill of the people of Barrow, building the boats that will carry the UK's continuous at sea deterrent for decades to come. 🔗 baes.co/vRHo50ZAkzC
