Expertise in submarine systems integration

With many years of experience, own user-level operational expertise and technical know-how, Anschütz developed a new architecture for the submarine’s navigation, steering and command technologies.

Our solutions offer seamless integration of critical capabilities from the combat and navigation domain like navigation, 3D steering control, tactical operation, automation, and data management. Our solutions overcome the point-to-point connections and turn data into information and decision support features.

The new architecture connects former stand-alone systems (from navigation, through tactical operations / command and control, to steering) and makes data accessible at any workplace where it is needed in a respective situation. This, in combination with features and capabilities provided by our applications, effectively supports superior situational awareness, accurate operation and reliable, precise navigation.

Our solutions are based on our wide range of submarine systems, designed and manufactured in Germany with a clear focus on quality and user experience. We continuously drive product improvement and innovation across our portfolio, in order to meet and exceed customer’s operational requirements.

Making the difference

Our products provide a high-performance basis for customized submarine system solutions, embedded within modern network infrastructure and scaled to the individual customer requirements, while flexible interfaces lead to a significant reduction of effort and cost in systems design, documentation and other NRC‘s.

Beyond this, our customers benefit from our first-hand knowledge and expertise in submarine navigation and control systems, system integration and system safety.

Our experienced program managers accompany the respective customer through the dedicated design phase and the related program milestones and reviews. This includes requirements and acceptance management, subcontract management including local industry participation, as well as configuration and obsolescence management, logistic support, training and in-service support.

We also manage non-functional requirements such as IT security, software quality, and process compliance. Our comprehensive safety management system is based on IEC 61508 and MIL STD 882, but can adapt to customer-specific requirements.
