Poland's Counter-Drone Network Uses Fiber-Optic Gyroscopes to Beat GPS Jamming

Advanced Navigation signed an $18.5 million deal with Kongsberg to embed hundreds of fiber-optic gyroscope systems into Poland's SAN CUAS network. The light-based navigation lets counter-drone weapons engage targets even as Russia's 36 Kaliningrad transmitters broadcast false GPS coordinates.

• Advanced Navigation-Kongsberg deal is valued at $18.5 million
• Hundreds of fiber-optic gyroscopes go into the SAN CUAS network
• Russia jams GPS with 36 transmitters in Kaliningrad
