Rohde & Schwarz wins design down-select for the Royal Navy's Combat Ship
Rohde & Schwarz UK has been down-selected after a 12-month competition process run by BAE Systems to be the preferred partner for the design phase of the integrated communications system for the Royal Navy’s Future Type 26 Global Combat Ship.
The Rohde & Schwarz proposal for the Type 26 includes innovative systems to deliver a state-of-the-art communications system. This, coupled with proven high reliability, will in turn reduce the through life cost with respect to support and provide the Royal Navy with improved efficiency of resources, high system availability and operational performance.
This down-select follows on from previous Rohde & Schwarz naval successes which include providing solutions to the Royal Navy’s Queen Elizabeth Class Aircraft Carriers, River Class Offshore Patrol Vessel, the Royal Fleet Auxiliary’s Bay Class Vessels, the Australian Hobart Class Air Warfare Destroyers, the Royal Dutch Navy LCF Frigates and Landing Platform Docking LPDs. The company has also supplied the Spanish Navy with the F100 Class Frigates and LPD.
