  • Press Release 22 June 2017 Altran and Luciad on Board with Dassault Aviation in the Creation of Their New Mission Preparation System for the RAFALE and Mirage 2000
    Press Release 22 June 2017 Altran and Luciad on board with Dassault Aviation in the creation of their new mission preparation system for the RAFALE and Mirage 2000 The mission preparation system OPERA, gives pilots all the information needed to simulate training or missions which combines high-performance software with an intuitive interface. In search of an innovative technological solution that would be precise, comprehensive and tailored to its constraints, Dassault Aviation has chosen to work with Altran and Luciad in order to design its Mission Preparation System, known as OPERA, for its RAFALE and Mirage 2000 fighter jets. The relevance and accuracy of geographic information is a key component for mission success. OPERA is a user-friendly system, dedicated to the preparation of training or combat missions. Firstly, it makes it possible to prepare a mission by supplying pilots with all necessary information (aerial photographs, satellite coverage of terrain, aeronautical charts, 2D/3D topography, targets, allied and enemy troops and so on…). OPERA allows the mission to be rehearsed in order to validate tactical choices. Once this stage is completed, data are converted to a dedicated format for uploading to mission calculators. In addition to its outstanding software performance, the system supplied by Altran and Luciad provides a functional and intuitive user interface. “The visual geospatial analysis tool, ‘LuciadLightspeed’ takes into account every one of our data formats Furthermore, this product offers 2D, 3D and 4D capabilities. Its performance, precision, and handling of data in real time are features that Dassault Aviation found compelling. Its intuitive user interface made it possible to quickly deploy it among our development teams with the expertise of Altran’s aeronautics consultants,” explained Salvador Lopez, Head of OPERA program at Dassault Aviation.

    M. Philippe Gros Research Fellow Fondation pour la recherche stratégique 27 rue Damesme, 75013 Paris July 27th, 2011 NETWORK CENTRIC WARFARE FRENCH CASE STUDY This case study 1 proposes an overview of the conceptual background and the various information and communication programs implementing in France the network-centric or network-enabled operations. It does not develop the basic tenets of the NCW concept, assuming it has been extensively covered by existing literature. Executive Summary The French armed forces, as British and other European forces, followed the trend initiated by the US to exploit the new information technologies in order to enhance dramatically the operational effectiveness. From a conceptual standpoint, the French concepts of “infovalorisation ” and “ opérations en réseaux ” (OR), are close to UK NEC concept, that is a networking supporting the control of effects. French share the intellectual foundations of Adm Cebrowski’s NCW (shared awareness leading to self-synchronisation leading to a leap in operational effectiveness). Nevertheless, while OR constitute a pillar of the French approach to transformation, their implementation are not seen as a tremendous revolution in warfare. The OR are enabled at the joint level by several key communication systems, notably the Syracuse satellite communication system and new software radios programs. Regarding information systems, French joint strategic and operational level HQs used the SICA since the last decade. This system is currently transforming Around 5 years behind the US Army, the French Army launched in 1999 its own program of digitisation, the numérisation de l’espace de bataille (NEB). NEB is allowed by the Army signal architecture including RITA 2G communication network and PR4G radio system.
