Our experience with machinery controls, integrated power systems, energy management, and shipboard electrical systems make Northrop Grumman an ideal partner for the shipyard to help with electric plant control design and support the shipyard’s role as an IPS Integrator. Northrop Grumman’s IPS is both flexible and adaptable – utilizing modular technologies to enable rapid, affordable upgrades on the DDG(X) platform. Northrop Grumman’s integrated power and energy systems are ideal for supporting current and emerging systems such as electromagnetic sensors, directed energy weapons, and radars. Scalable energy storage and management systems are increasingly important for modern naval warfare. Power & Energy: Integrated Power Solution (IPS) Northrop Grumman is developing sensors and systems that can be integrated seamlessly on next generation platforms like DDG(X). Northrop Grumman: Leader in Integration DDG(X) Navy ECDIS provides paperless navigation, route planning, situational awareness, and radar integration on U.S. The WSN-12 is scheduled for Fleet deployment beginning in late 2022. The WSN-12 Inertial Navigation System is more precise than the WSN-7 and will be crucial to establishing true A-PNT (assured position, navigation, and timing), critical for long range weaponry. Currently, there is a WSN-7 on nearly every ship in the U.S. It allows our ships and submarines to operate in areas where GPS is denied. The WSN-7 is an inertial navigator, a device that allows for precise navigation and aiming of weapons.
