Indian Navy and BEL Develop Advanced Autonomous Navigation Software A2NCS
The Indian Navy, in collaboration with Bharat Electronics Limited, has developed the Advanced Autonomous Navigation & Control Software (A2NCS) for unmanned surface vessels, enhancing autonomous operations such as waypoint navigation and obstacle avoidance. Certified by the Indian Register of Shipping, A2NCS is now being deployed for mine countermeasure operations, supporting India's Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative and strengthening naval capabilities in the Indian Ocean Region.

The Indian Navy, in collaboration with Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), developed the Advanced Autonomous Navigation & Control Software (A2NCS) for unmanned surface vessels (USVs). Integrated into Fast Interceptor Boats, A2NCS enables autonomous operations including waypoint navigation and obstacle avoidance.
The system employs a sensor fusion network and AI algorithms, enhancing maritime capabilities. Certification from the Indian Register of Shipping validates its performance in collision avoidance and adherence to maritime standards. Deployment has begun for mine countermeasure operations, aligning with India's Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative, and enhancing naval warfare capabilities in the Indian Ocean Region.
