NEW DELHI: Northrop Grumman Corporation will be participating at INDESEC 2010 where it will highlight a range of its key capabilities dedicated to civil defence, national security and resilience.
INDESEC 2010 takes place from 6-8 Sept. 2010 at the Pragati Maidan, central Delhi. It is the only exhibition and conference held in India that integrates the homeland security and defence sectors with a key focus on homeland and border security, network-centric operations and maritime security. Northrop Grumman will be exhibiting in the UK pavilion being led by UK Trade and Investment Defence Services Organisation (UKTI DSO) and the trade association ADS and will focus on its UK-based technologies and capabilities. This follows the recent British Government visit to India to reinforce trade links.
“India is an important market for Northrop Grumman and our range of UK-based capabilities from unmanned ground vehicle systems for surveillance and remote handling of threats, to advanced communication and information management systems are well suited to help respond to India’s requirements for a coordinated national defence structure,” said Richard Mears, director of Group Business Development for Northrop Grumman Information Systems sector Europe. “The solutions we are highlighting here are part of Northrop Grumman’s wider portfolio of technologies and demonstrate our UK expertise in the integration of complex information systems and the tangible benefits that these can bring.”
Northrop Grumman UK will be promoting a range of its civil defence and security solutions with equipment, displays and presentations of key technologies including its UK capabilities in command and control, situational awareness and unmanned ground vehicle systems.
Using its Critical Incident Response System (CIRS) together with TouchTable(tm), it will demonstrate the ability to integrate seamlessly a variety of national security solutions into a common situational awareness display for crisis management. CIRS combines the best hardware and software allowing commanders to plan quickly and intuitively, engage and manage emergency situations and complex events. The TouchTable(tm) enables group collaboration, analysis of incident site information and remote sharing of information over IP to any other TouchTable(tm) or IP-enabled device. This ensures that all emergency services and first responders are working to the same information.
Highlighted also will be Northrop Grumman’s leading capability in tactical command and control systems including the Integrated Tactical Command and Control Services (I-TaCCS) and Integrated Joint Operational Command and Control Services (I-JOCCS).
I-TaCCS is a land, sea and air and dismounted soldier-based C4I solution and when combined with I-JOCCS, an operational and tactical level static and mobile headquarters C4I solution, delivers an integrated end-to-end command, control, surveillance and intelligence capability. Presentations will be available on all aspects of these capabilities.
The software application Command and Control for the PC (C2PC) forms a core component of I-TaCCS. In service in more than 40 countries with 100,000 users, C2PC provides a common tactical picture for operational command and control, improving situational awareness and enhancing operational and tactical decision making. C2PC provides the user interface and core functionality for many operational command systems currently on operations around the world including NATO’s Maritime Command & Control System (MCCIS), the UK MoD’s Joint Operations Command System (JOCS) and Royal Navy Command Support System (RNCSS).
Also featured will be Northrop Grumman’s capability in unmanned ground vehicle systems for remote handling of hazardous threats including bomb disposal, tactical and surveillance operations. The highly versatile heavy duty robot, Andros F6A vehicle which provides a range of remote capabilities for law enforcement and bomb disposal operations will be on display.
Northrop Grumman Corporation is a leading global security company whose 120,000 employees provide innovative systems, products, and solutions in aerospace, electronics, information systems, shipbuilding and technical services to government and commercial customers worldwide.
