British Army division adopts SitaWare C2 solution
Interoperable architecture helps enable joint and coalition operations
The 3rd Division of the British Army – the UK’s strategic land warfare asset – is adopting SitaWare Headquarters COTS software from Denmark-based Systematic, to enhance situational awareness and C2 capabilities at and above battalion level.
SitaWare Headquarters is already in use with 3rd Division in Exercise Cerberus on Salisbury Plain; it is planned to feature in Warfighter Exercise 21-4 in the US in 2021, when the division will train alongside units from the US and French armies.
Matthew Millward, VP of business development for the UK, North Africa and Western Europe at Systematic, said that the interoperable architecture behind SitaWare ‘enables forces to work within Joint and Coalition environments’.
Under the contract Systematic will also provide technical and support services, as well as a ‘blended training solution’ combining traditional classroom-based instruction with online and e-learning packages, Millward added.
