THALES NS110 RADAR PASSES FACTORY ACCEPTANCE TEST AHEAD OF UK TYPE 31 INSPIRATION CLASS FIT
PARIS -- Thales announced that its NS110 surveillance radar passed factory acceptance tests at the end of February, and this was witnessed by a delegation of customers including Babcock International and the U.K. Ministry of Defence. The MoD's participation is particularly appropriate, as the U.K. Royal Navy's new Type 31 Inspiration Class Frigates will be fitted with the NS110. This recently tested example will be used for integration testing initially before being installed on board a Type 31.
"The Type 31 program is very important to Thales and we are proud to play such a pivotal role in it. This Factory Acceptance Test demonstrates our commitment to delivery in accordance with specification," said Gerben Edelijn, Vice-President Thales Above Water Systems.
"The success of this milestone is very important to the T31 enterprise. We're proud to be part of this national endeavor and to be providing mission critical systems to our customers," said Alex Cresswell, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Thales in the UK.
