With its decision support systems ADVENT has an architecture that facilitates the speed and correct decision-making process of its user and provides flexible structure in the use of new weapons and sensors. It has been developed in a modular structure that fits in multi-task profiles and other platform types. ADVENT is a platform independent system. With its scalable open architecture structure; ADVENT can be adapted to surface, underwater and air platforms and land facilities.
As Turkey’s one and only, sole source proven combat management system provider, HAVELSAN has not only contributed to the Turkish Navy in improving its deterrence power but also strengthened its competitiveness in global markets.
