challenges and solutions ixblue has conceived a complete range of inertial systems to address the full spectrum of land applications. The Advans Series products are designed to respond to all the challenges raised by integrators and land forces: accuracy, efficiency, but also reliability, low cost of ownership and flexibility to adjust to all types of missions. Reliable navigation in all environmental and operational conditions is a key requirement for all modern land platforms to successfully carry out their missions in security. Accurate pointing is also critical to improve efficiency of howitzers, radars, observation turrets or any system requiring true north accuracy. Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) are therefore expected to deliver accurate real-time pointing and reliable navigational data whatever the conditions - notably in GNSS denied environments - thus greatly enhancing the platform resilience capabilities on the battlefield. Industrial integrators need equipment that is not only reliable and cost-effective, but also easy to integrate, in order to reduce their non-recurring costs. Moreover, equipment acquisition is governed by the recurring demand on the part of land defense and security forces to minimize overall cost of ownership. Very high MTBF, scalability and interchangeability to adapt the vehicles and weapon systems equipment to the missions, as well as lifecycle cost reductions through commonalities, low-maintenance and obsolescence management, are all key criteria for systems targeted by modern armies. Up-to-date technology: ixblue systems leverage the most advanced and proven technologies across all applications for efficiency and consistency. Critical system components are all designed, developed and manufactured in-house as a result of intensive internal investment in R&D. They are individually implemented once their technological maturity is fully demonstrated for land usage through intensive testing and trials. Performance: ixblue systems performance is the result of years of high level R&D investment. Our aim is to design systems that not only meet the key performance requirements, but the whole set of critical and desirable requirements that make the systems perfectly suited to the most demanding land usage. We refuse to make technological compromises and strongly believe that the most capable systems are the result of innovation and a commitment to excellence. High reliability and availability are ixblue trademarks. The unrivaled MTBF of ixblue s FOG technology, far over 80,000 working hours, has set the pace for all other system developments. Reliability, together with the lowest level of preventive maintenance, are key principles that govern ixblue technical choices in systems design. In addition, ixblue offers a 24/7 technical support service worldwide to guarantee the highest level of system service for its customers. Commonality, scalability, versality: ixblue offers scalable solutions for each type of platform. ixblue systems share strong commonalities with regards to hardware, software and interfaces. This results in significant savings in term of integration, installation, configuration management, logistics, training and maintenance costs. Furthermore, the implementation of open architectures, large protocol libraries and modular software make ixblue systems very versatile and easy to interface with all types of external systems. 8 LAND DEFENSE & SECURITY LAND DEFENSE & SECURITY 9

INERTIAL NAVIGATION Cost effective, the Advans Inertial Navigation Systems are highly reliable and do not require any periodic maintenance. They are ITAR-free, very compact, adaptive to all communication protocols and feature the same web-based user interface across all models, making them easy to integrate and operate. All Advans products are based on the same architecture, using the same software and connectors, and are qualified versus the same environment. This results in perfect interchangeability, except for the mechanical interface, allowing for one single integration for a Horizontal position without GNSS 0.1% DT 0.3% DT 0.7% DT FOG Ursa Vega Lyra Two technologies, one unique product range Fiber-optic gyroscope Advans products benefits from the advantages of FOG technology: reliability, absence of periodic maintenance, compacity, low power consumption. In addition, due to the legacy in civil markets, integration is rendered particularly easy with open protocols. Moreover, like for naval applications, there is no observed limitation of performance, meaning that the Advans Series will benefit from the optimization of the technology to improve the performance of higher grade Mico-electro-mechanical systems Ursa 3 is a MEMS-based INU. It has been developed to meet the requirement of land and security forces to offer a simple, cost-effective INU. It uses the same interfaces as Ursa 5 and 7. MEMS technology is improving every year. The expected performance in terms of gyro bias is better than 1 per hour, whereas the FOG technology can be downscaled with reduced prices. The two technologies will not overlap but join. Key benefits Low cost of ownership Solid state: high reliability MTBF > 80,000 h No periodic maintenance Easy to integrate Open protocols Very compact and light Low power consumption Growth potential FOG: No identified performance limitation MEMS: Technology of the future fleet of vehicles equipped with INUs and bring down cost and several variants. size for medium grade INUs.

TAILOR MADE SOLUTIONS Positioner for SATCOM Weapon platforms With its vast streches of mountains and rugged valleys, Afghanistan was a hugely problematic terrain for the Allied forces deployed in the region during the last conflict. One of the main difficulties was the effect of the topography on the means of communication. By blocking the signal, mountains often make with hybrid orientation systems (mechanical / electronic) of the beam working in perfect symbiosis with each other, so that the beam remains pointed towards the satellite regardless of the terrain topography. IXblue has especially developed the positioner and the ACU (Antenna control Unit) for Thales. The positioner is holding For Very-Short-Range Air-Defence (VSHORAD) and Anti-Tank (AT) systems mounted on armored vehicles, Kheops can be equipped with a bridge providing interface to handle standard launchers (rockets) or carriers (missiles). Moreover, vintage armored carriers wheeled or tracked originally equipped with pintle mounts, found in this product a solution to maintain their military effectiveness with the latest technology available and personnel safety with remote capability. Adding a Ursa, Lyra or Vega, customers benefit from a full navigating solution with heading and location even in GNSS denied environment or binding relief. conventional radio links simply impossible. In 2009, this led the French Ministry of Defense to ask for the development and deployment as quickly as possible of a SOTM (SATCOM On The Move) capable of staying permanently connected and the antenna and is directly mounted onto the vehicle. It ensures the pointing of the beam around azimuthal axis (with high bandwidth and low friction). The ACU is mounted inside the vehicle and allows the power On-the-move satellite communication For custom requirements concerning weapon station, our design office will offer innovative solutions with special care regarding critical characteristics: Stabilization of the Line Of Sight Accessibility for reloading Shocks and climatics environments Fire security at platform level reliable over long periods supply of the sensors with ixblue positioning system of time.
