Lyncea BMS to include Link 22
Link 22 allows exchange of tactical data with all sea surface, subsea, airborne, land and space platforms
Hensolt subsidiary Nexeya France announced on 3 November that it is integrating the NATO Link 22 tactical data link with its Lyncea naval surveillance and BMS.
The modular Lyncea system is designed for use on patrol boats and surveillance frigates. It uses the latest signal processing technologies in order to increase the detection distance of small targets. It is especially suitable for surveillance of maritime zones, anti-trafficking, public service missions, SAR and ASuW operations, Nexeya stated on 3 November.
Link 22 can reach up to 300nm thanks to BLoS secure communications. As a replacement for Link 11, it offers complete interoperability of allied forces and allows the exchange of tactical data with all sea surface, subsea, airborne, land and space platforms.
