ISR tested on Navy stealth ship

ISR systems have been successfully tested on the Navy's M80 Stiletto littoral stealth ship.

The test involved Raytheon's Persistent Surveillance System Cross Domain Solution (PSS CDS), which shares information across classified and unclassified domains, and Intersect Sentry, an automated analysis tool.

"During the Navy demonstration, Intersect Sentry automatically analyzed data streams and sent alerts to the PSS CDS for simultaneous display across various networks, creating a common operating picture for different users operating at multiple classification levels," said a Raytheon news release.
