BAE Systems Unveils Comprehensive Line of M-Code GPS Receivers at Joint Navigation Conference
June 4, 2025 | PRNewswireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
BAE Systems unveiled a diverse line of M-Code Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver solutions at the Joint Navigation Conference in Cincinnati this week, rounding out an extensive line of products that ensure U.S. warfighters have the most dependable GPS systems available across sea, land, and air.
M-Code is a military GPS signal designed to improve anti-jamming capabilities and provide enhanced security. BAE Systems' security-certified Common GPS Modules (CGMs) leverage the robust M-Code signal across an all-inclusive GPS receiver line. The portfolio scales from the world's smallest and lowest-power M-Code GPS for size, weight, and power (SWaP)-challenged applications, to highly robust receivers with integrated anti-jam antenna electronics for exceptionally challenging environments.
"There is now an M-Code version of every GPS receiver created by BAE Systems," said Luke Bishop, director of Navigation and Sensor Systems at BAE Systems. "The open-architecture capability of our products can be tailored to solve our customers' most pressing battlefield problems quickly and at an affordable price."
BAE Systems' diverse line of M-Code receivers are next-generation GPS solutions for airborne, weapon, and ground platforms, including handheld form factors. This includes:
- ASR™-M
- DIGAR™-300M
- MPE™-M
- MicroGRAM™-M
- NavFire™-M
- NavGuide™
- NavStrike™-M
- NavStorm™-M
- SABR™-M
The company anticipates deliveries of the NavGuide™ handheld to customers will begin this year.
BAE Systems is also set to deliver a future generation of GPS products based on Military GPS User Equipment (MGUE) Increment 2 technology, developed as part of the MGUE Increment 2 Miniature Serial Interface (MSI) program. The technology will improve the performance of military position, navigation, and timing (PNT) equipment and provide resilience against attacks on GPS signals
BAE Systems has provided selective availability anti-spoofing module products to more than 45 countries and has begun delivering M-Code GPS receivers in multiple form factors and levels of capability to the U.S. armed forces and its allies through foreign military sales.
