Thales to supply NATO with latest-generation situational awareness solution to ensure decision superiority

April 14, 2025 - Joint operations today are conducted by land, air and naval units with many different types of command systems, which generate huge amounts of georeferenced operational information.

The NCOP application captures, aggregates and correlates all this information to generate a single, comprehensive view of the theatre of operations, providing NATO commanders with a Common Operational Picture (COP) that ensures optimised awareness of joint forces operations, for more effective decision-making and action.

To meet this requirement, Thales has developed a software system designed to provide the operational community with secure access to multiple COPs. Tactical information from multiple data sources delivers improved situational awareness of joint forces operations, thereby ensuring information superiority across the battlespace.

Each COP is displayed in real time and includes key elements such as operations in progress, the logistical and operational capabilities of friendly and enemy forces, and possible action plans for future coordinated efforts
