Warships |

Naval
operations increasingly involve joint combat operations with multiple
platform inter-operability as an essential element. There is a specific
requirement for aircraft operations to be launched from, and recovered
to, the flight deck of warships at night on night vision goggles
(NVG). The aircraft may already be NVG compatible, but the need
for external lighting on the warship must also be addressed.
In achieving
the best lighting solution, the individual requirements of flight
crew, deck crew and bridge crew must be examined. It’s imperative
that the
Warship lights do not cause any deterioration to the NVG image,
maintaining the pilot’s clear view of deck references. Equally
important, deck crews must have sufficient visible light to carry
out their tasks. Consideration must be given to all external lights
that may affect the view through NVG from the aircraft; including
lights on the bridge and helicopter control station.
Solutions often
require provision of Oxley NVG Friendly™ lighting schemes,
incorporating white and night vision device (NVD) blue lighting
into flight deck lighting and maintaining the original colours of
navigation and operational lights. LED technology is more reliable
and provides better performance characteristics in many applications,
whilst others benefit from optical filter installation.

warships or operating independently on special operations, benefit
from significant operational enhancement with the addition of lights
suitable for NVG operations.

Our
cockpit NVG upgrades provide a single ship capability. Multi-ship
and CSAR missions in a hostile theatre require Covert IR formation
lights whereas Oxley
NVG Friendly™ navigation lights permit training missions
in controlled airspace compliant with FAR/EASA regulations.
