March 13, 2025 | Collins AerospaceEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Collins Aerospace, an RTX business, has received approval for Full Rate Production of the Mounted Assured Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) Generation II system (MAPS GEN II).
Following the fifth delivery order of the jam-and-spoof-resistant navigation solution, Collins will produce thousands of MAPS units for installation on U.S. Army and U.S. Marines Corps' combat ground vehicles including military watercraft. MAPS fuses sensor data including satellite navigation information and secured positioning, navigation and timing data for crewed and uncrewed ground vehicles.
"Through close coordination with our customer, we've met the modernized fielding requirements for MAPS while reducing production costs," said Sandy Brown, vice president and general manager for Resilient Navigation Solutions, Collins Aerospace. "MAPS GEN II is a critical part of the DOD's modernization goals and will provide the warfighter with trusted access to Assured PNT when they need it most."
MAPS GEN II is comprised of the company's NavHub™-100 navigation system and Multi-Sensor Antenna System (MSAS-100) and supports multiple mission sets including combat, artillery fires, air and missile defense, ship-to-shore and contested logistics. Collins offers additional scalable configurations of NavHub™-100 navigation system and Multi-Sensor Antenna System (MSAS-100).
