Delivery of first AlphaBridge

Rotterdam-based Alphatron Marine has announced the delivery of the first 46-inch display AlphaBridge for patrol vessel TTS Speyside.

The AlphaBridge keeps a 360 viewing field but includes unique and sophisticated functions which are shown on three displays and presented in a fully integrated package.

TTS Speyside will be operating in Trinidad and Tobago, detection and identification are key elements for the officers who operate the vessel.

The AlphaBridge systems work together to allow target motion analysis, intelligence and target alarms for quick responses to emergency situations.

It will improve communication with the shore based surveillance centre to allow for optimal decision support and joint engagement.

The surveillance vessels will also have advanced WAIS technology onboard which aims to improve strategic and controlled engagement with necessary targets.

Alphabridge is supported by WECDIS functions that can be presented on large displays in an easy to use format. Alphatron Marine has combined with Damen and Transas to present the cost effective format.

The navigation and surveillance equipment has been carefully selected based on high performance, proven technologies and cost effectiveness.
