Ensuring a Successful Mission

Achieving mission success means ensuring our Soldiers and their equipment can get where they’re needed, quickly and efficiently, and in a variety of different operating environments. In support of Vigor’s groundbreaking landing craft program for the U.S. Army, the Maneuver Support Vessel – Light (MSVL), Northrop Grumman’s Maritime/Land Systems & Sensors Division is providing the C4I systems engineering and program management support to BMT Designers & Planners.

In this role, Northrop Grumman is responsible for the procurement, design, installation, integration and test of the COTS navigation, and communications systems suite of equipment to be installed on the vessel. In addition, Northrop Grumman is also performing the integration and test of GFE Combat Systems equipment.
