At MSPO 2014, the International Defense Exhibition currently taking
place in Kielce, Kongsberg is showcasing some elements of the NSM (Naval
Strike Missile) coastal battery system. The battery is operated by a
Polish Navy coastal defence squadron based in Siemirowice (Northern
Poland near Gdansk). The NSM Coastal Defence System is designed for high precision strike missions against high threat targets or highly defended targets at sea or on land up to 200 km and above Polish Navy personnel explained to Navy Recognition the typical organization of a coatal battery: The squadron has 2 NSM coastal battery systems. Each battery consists in: » 3x MLV (Missile Launch Vehicles) » 1x BCV (Battery Command Vehicle) » 3x CCV (Combat Command Vehicles) » 1x MCC (Mobile Communication Center) » 1x MRV (Mobile Radar Vehicle) with TRS-15C radar In addition, the squadron has 1x TLV (Transport/Loading Vehicle) and 1x MWV (Mobile Workshop Vehicle) |

At MSPO 2014, there are 3 NSM coastal battery vehicles
on display:
1- The Missile Launch Vehicle (MLV) carries up to four Naval Strike Missiles and is connected to the Combat Command Vehicle (CCV) command post via radio and/or optical fibre. The launcher can be deployed and remotely controlled up to 10 km away from the CCV. The MLV can fire the four NSMs in seconds against a single and/or different targets enabling multiple simultaneous engagements. Up to 6 launchers with 24 missiles can be netted and all missiles are ready to fire. |

2- The Battery
Command Vehicle (BCV) is the central integrating element
for the NSM Coastal Defence System and provides BMC4I for current and
future coastal defense missons. The BCV can control up to 3 Combat Command
Vehicles. The BCV is flexible, scalable and interoperable. The open
software/hardware architecture allows insertion of new technology when
available.

3- The Mobile Communication Center (MCC)
constitutes the main core network within the NSM coastal defence system
and provides establishement, control and management of all internal
and external data & voice communication.
The MCC supports a variety of communication means such as SATCOM, HCLOS, IP/HF/VHF radios, and fiber cable connections. The MCC enables connection to tactical data links as Link 16, Link 11 A & B and the coastal radar chain LEBA Check out our technical datasheet to learn more about the NSM |
