Paris International Air Show, 17th June 2025 – At a time marked by an unprecedented surge in jamming and spoofing threats targeting GNSS systems—up by 500% globally in 2024¹ —the launch of BlackNaute sets a new standard in autonomous positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT).

Thanks to the integration of a next-generation navigation system based on Safran’s patented HRG Dual Core technology delivering unmatched inertial performance alongside the Skylight™ multi-mode GNSS receiver board (Galileo – PRS / GPS – M-Code / Civil GPS) and an atomic clock, BlackNaute is capable of ensuring exceptional navigation resilience even in the most demanding electronic warfare environments.

Its built-in atomic clock maintains precise timing essential for secure communications and collaborative combat operations.
