Dynamic Positioning Systems

  • —Literature Available Hawker Siddeley Dynamics Engineering Limited and Kongsberg Limited have entered into an agreement to establish a joint international marketing and sales venture for computer-based dynamic positioning and machinery control systems for naval vessels.

    A complete systems approach for platform control of naval vessels will be provided by the two companies.

    The Albatross division of Kongsberg is a market leader in dynamic positioning systems; Hawker Siddeley Dynamics Engineering is a major supplier of machinery automation equipment, such as computer-based integrated steering and propulsion control systems.
