"It
would be correct to speak about a next generation system - combat information
control system which is universal or better say consists of modules
for various types of warships. Our enterprises are working to create
a universal model of the integrated combat control system for various
types of surface-going vessels," Antsev said.
He stressed that the new system will comprise a big number of modules
in charge of anti-submarine and air defense, control of surrounding
space, communications and operation of armaments. The main task is to
decrease the response time. "We have to reduce decision-making
time for the use of weapons both for warships in cruising formation
and in solo navigation," the director of the company said.
The new design is also to have integral control system which assesses
the level of threat and the necessity to use that or another type of
weapons or available jamming systems. Antsev said several test-beds
are being created to unite design specifics of company enterprises.
In particular, they study perspective automatic control systems for
warships, radar and hydroacoustic complexes, as well as armaments control.
"The designed modelling complexes are being united under a common
concept which will help us look into the future and determine how "smart"
a warship should be to fight a potential adversary, say, in 2025, 2030
or 2035," Antsev said.
