ADVENT: Transforming Naval Warfare with Advanced Technology

Introducing HAVELSAN's ADVENT, the epitome of Advanced Combat Management Systems, strategically designed to redefine naval operations. With a notable presence in the Turkish Navy and Globally recognized as a preferred choice for many navies, ADVENT sets a new standard in enhancing situational awareness, decision-making capabilitiy, and operational efficiency.

Core Features of ADVENT: A Blend of Sophistication and Precision

• Network Enabled Capability (NEC): Featuring a hierarchical structure, NEC enhances operational effectiveness through centralized control and distributed execution. This system facilitates the sharing of weapon and sensor capabilities across platforms. Utilizing NEC, strategic planning incorporates threat assessment, resource allocation, and unit protection. Plans are then disseminated and executed across all task forces in a coordinated effort.
• Advanced Sensor Data Fusion: At the heart of ADVENT is its exceptional data integration from multiple sensors, enabling an unparalleled level of situational awareness. This comprehensive overview enables commanders to make quick and informed decisions in complex operational environments.
• Superior Command and Control Modules: With advanced command modules, ADVENT optimizes resource allocation, ensures seamless information flow, and enhances coordination among naval units. This sophisticated system is critical for the precise execution of complex naval strategies.
• Enhanced Decision Support: ADVENT is equipped with advanced analytical tools, predictive modeling, and simulation technologies, offering robust decision support. This allows commanders to evaluate various operational scenarios, formulating effective strategies for mission success.
• Secured Communication Systems: ADVENT's robust communication capabilities ensure reliable and secure information sharing within naval units and across command levels, crucial for interoperability and effective joint operations.
• Advanced Training and Simulation Platform: As a state-of-the-art training tool, ADVENT offers realistic exercises and scenario-based training, essential for enhancing crew readiness, teamwork, and tactical skills in modern naval warfare. Thanks to NEC, a common training capability is provided, where all educational skills are executed collectively by platforms based on a shared scenario in the common training capability.

Versatility and Global Reach

ADVENT's global presence is marked by its adoption by many naval forces, showcasing its versatility and adaptability. With a modular design and platform-independent architecture, ADVENT can be integrated into a wide range of platforms, including submarines, unmanned systems, and aerial vehicles. This adaptability not only enhances the effectiveness of individual units but also strengthens the operational capacity of naval forces worldwide.

Embrace the Future with ADVENT

At a time when technological advancement is of paramount importance, ADVENT represents a decisive advantage for naval forces seeking to gain a strategic edge. Its global reach and ability to integrate across multiple platforms underscores its role as a transformative force in naval warfare. By integrating ADVENT into their operations, navies can unlock new potential and achieve unparalleled success.

Versatility in Action: SANCAR AUSV

As technology has developed, the frequency and diversity of security threats to the world's navies have increased. Autonomous unmanned surface vehicles integrate advanced technology into military units by sensing the environment using sensor systems and performing important tasks such as ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) and defense. In the coming period, armed unmanned surface vehicles will become an inevitable force multiplier for modern navies, responding to asymmetric threats. In response to the needs of modern navies, HAVELSAN has developed the SANCAR Armed Unmanned Surface Vehicle (AUSV) in cooperation with the Yonca Shipyard.

As SANCAR AUSV is manufactured using a modular design, additional payloads can be easily integrated into the platform to fulfill the expected tasks and at the same time perform various tasks that may arise in the future.

SANCAR AUSV has an uninterrupted communication infrastructure based on RF/GSM/SAT systems, all used together. This enables it to carry out operations effectively over long distances.

SANCAR AUSV is the first unmanned system using ADVENT ROTA (ADVENT C4ISR system developed for unmanned systems) as a mission system. SANCAR AUSV can be controlled from a mobile ground control station equipped with an ADVENT C4ISR mission system that complies with NATO interoperability standards. This allows it to be deployed on other naval platforms that use ADVENT. Thus, SANCAR can transfer tasks between different ships, conduct network-centric operations with manned/unmanned platforms as a team and offer easy adaptability for swarm operations. In this respect, SANCAR AUSV has a technological infrastructure that outperforms its global competitors.

SANCAR AUSV was developed to autonomously perform the tasks of harbor and base protection, search and rescue, ISR, patrol, surface warfare and mine countermeasures. SANCAR AUSV will minimize the risks to human life and enable many tasks to be performed more cost and time efficiently with modular payloads. This makes it one of the most versatile platforms.

Autonomous systems technologies such as artificial intelligence and data fusion were used in its development. It has a length of 12.73 meters, a width of 3.3 meters and a displacement of 9 tons. The platform can reach a speed of over 40 knots and has a range of over 740 kilometers.

Thanks to its modular design, the platform, which can operate in up to four sea states, also offers the possibility of integrating weapons and electronic systems of different types and uses. In terms of weapon systems, SANCAR AUSV has a stabilized 12.7 mm weapon system and its defensive capabilities can be increased by integrating a tactical missile system. The Mini Ship Data Distribution System is also integrated into the platform. Another factor that distinguishes SANCAR AUSV from others is the integration of a telescopic mast with a navigation radar camera and a collision avoidance system. This mast structure further increases the modular design and offers flexibility when using new systems.

SANCAR AUSV, a superior platform with many cutting-edge technologies, will prepare the world's navies for the future operational environment.
