Northrop Grumman’s A-PNT approach moves the burden away from sole reliance on GPS to the complementary use of inertial devices augmented with additional alternative methods of navigation.
Connecting forces across all domains
Northrop Grumman provides the US Army decisive advantage across all domains with the ability to fully integrate their battlespace using advanced weapons, advanced multi-function sensing and avionics to execute their missions, fight and win.
With deep expertise and understanding of the multi-domain battle, our combat avionics, integrated air and missile defense, cyber security, training, and multifunction mission systems, can affordably enable the transition back to multi-spectral competencies.
Our open, modular architecture also allows for rapid integration and the ability to update systems as the threat evolves, providing the decisive advantage needed for mission success.
