Anschutz Nauto Control System

Offers One-Man-Bridge Operation

Anschutz is offering important equipment and systems for economi- cal navigation with the introduc- tion of the Nauto Control Naviga- tion Planning System (NPS).

The company reports that with

NPS the entire system can be ex- tended by many important compo- nents to a comfortable work station.

The work station, the automatic plot- ting table Nautoplot D and the GPS receiver Nautostar are linked via a data manager.

With this type of work station the company reports that it is possible for easy-to operate route planning with comparison of the ship's de- sired and actual positions; digital, adaptive and economical track moni- toring; as well as representation and recording of all relevant navi- gational data.

The Nautoecon is an available option which computes the most economical route and speed for the ship based on optimal track control, current environmental conditions and the selected time of arrival.

Anschutz offers its integrated navigation system with such

Anschutz products as: the gyro com- pass Standard 14, Nautocourse, rate-of-turn equipment, magnetic compass with pick-up-sonde; and various repeater compasses, indica- tors, steering control components form the Nautosteer family, and a radar.

Navy Could Reduce

Sub Scrapping Costs

A recently released General Ac- counting Office (GAO) report states that the Navy's $2.7 billion esti- mated cost of scrapping 100 subs and disposing of another 85 already deactivated subs could be reduced by $1.1 billion if the vessels were scrapped at Puget Sound Naval

Shipyard, Wash., instead of being towed to other yards.

Five of the six Navy nuclear- qualified shipyards are involved in the deactivation program, but all the subs must first go to Puget Sound to have their reactor compartments cut out and shipped whole to the nearby Hanford Nuclear Reserva- tion for disposal. Afterwards the sub sections are welded back to- gether and towed to the other ship- yards for dismantling.

The GAO says that by avoiding the towing fees to the other ship- yards the Navy could save between $4.5 million and $11.5 million per submarine, a total program savings of $450 million to $1.1 billion.
