The systems will be integrated into Kongsberg’s Protector RS4 remote weapon system to enhance targeting accuracy and line-of-sight control in high-threat environments.
Advanced Navigation said the Boreas D90 was chosen for its performance in GNSS-denied conditions and for the company’s ability to meet strict delivery schedules through vertically integrated manufacturing.
“This collaboration marks the next frontier in precision warfare, reflecting global defence’s growing trust in Advanced Navigation’s technology,” said Chris Shaw, CEO and co-founder of Advanced Navigation.
Shaw said that “By integrating our sovereign, strategic-grade positioning into Kongsberg’s renowned Protector RS4, we’re enabling a new era of sensor and precision autonomy, fortifying platforms against the escalating threat of electronic warfare.”
The Protector RS4, used by more than 30 nations, is designed to support a wide range of payloads for land and sea platforms.
Integrating the Boreas D90 will allow the system to maintain locked targeting and georeferenced stability even when GNSS is compromised or denied.
The deal supports Australia’s Global Supply Chain Program, which links domestic suppliers with major international defence companies.
“Kongsberg is committed to building a resilient and collaborative global defence ecosystem built on deep, long-term partnerships, not simple transactions,” said Martin Rold Hansen, Director Market & Sales at Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace.
Shaw said sustained multinational cooperation was essential as governments and industry respond to rising electronic warfare threats and geopolitical uncertainty.
He added that “To maintain an operational edge, governments, regulators, and industry must work hand-in-hand to build a cross-border ecosystem centred around receptiveness to innovation and interchangeability.”
Advanced Navigation said the agreement strengthens its position within a global defence prime’s supply chain and supports NATO-aligned innovation.
