Eurosatory: Atos launches new BMS
Atos has launched a new battle management system (BMS) called Bull at the Eurosatory exhibition in Paris on 14 June.
Bull BMS is designed to provide a real-time information sharing capability for land and air-land combat, throughout the entire battalion chain of command, including headquarters, inside vehicles and for the dismounted soldier.
The system allows rapid creation of combined arms battle groups, which can share information about the mission effectively, even in degraded network conditions. It has an intuitive user interface, high tolerance for manual entry, and automates the capture of data.
Technical neutrality means Bull can be easily adapted to equipment of the user - tactical radio, vehicles, vetronics, operating systems and connected armaments.
Pierre Barnabé, SVP managing director, big data and security, Atos, said: ‘With Bull BMS, soldiers can focus on their mission while benefitting from the power of digitalisation. The system considerably accelerates decision-making and gives priority to action.
‘The sharing of strategic information in reflex time gives battalions an advantage in terms of autonomy, responsiveness and protection, which visibly and durably changes the tactical situation on the ground.’
