RNTF Report

On the 18th we alerted our readers to the pending announcement of a European Commission procurement of  “an advanced interference detection and robustness capabilities system.”

That announcement was made last week. Information is available on the EU site here. Much of the info is repeated below.

We wish all nations would already have such a system in place.  It is good the EU is setting the example and we wish them the greatest success.

What Can YOU Do? How Can YOU Help?

PNT is the quiet backbone of everything but too many leaders still don’t see the risk.

But you do. You understand the systems, the dependencies, the failure chains. That insight is rare — and it’s exactly what your country needs right now. Contact your government leaders and industry decision-makers and tell them resilient PNT isn’t a feature — it’s the foundation everything else depends on.
