SCOMBA

SCOMBA (Spanish: Sistema de Combate de los Buques de la Armada; meaning "Spanish Navy's ship's combat system") is a unified combat system that equips the majority of Spanish naval vessels since 2010. It is a variant of the Aegis combat system.

History

SCOMBA is a Spanish national version of the Aegis combat system evolved from a technology transfer, including lines of source code included in the Álvaro de Bazán-class frigate program, this includes commonality with the C&D (Command and Decision) and ADS (Aegis Display System) of the US Navy version,[1] with the aim of unifying in a common core all future Spanish Navy combat systems sharing source code, specifications, interface, equipment and training all without an external support.

General characteristics

The hardware is composed of two redundant ARES processing units, a variable amount of CONAM terminals, two or three monitors, a digital video TV and radar server (SD2V), a variable amount of large display screens linked to a wide range of sensors. During the development of SCOMBA the following sensors where integrated among others:[2]

  • LANZA-N radar from Indra Sistemas.
  • ARIES radar from Indra.
  • IFF with mode 5 and mode S.
  • PAR Approach radar (based on the ARIES radar).
  • DORNA naval radar and optronic fire direction developed by Navantia.
  • RIGEL countermeasure suite.
  • AIS as a sensor of the combat system.
  • LINPRO processor built by Tecnobit, with a common type N interface.
  • Amphibious assault craft control system.
  • Integration with a common maps archive.
  • NTP synchronization.
