Anschütz has delivered and commissioned its SYNAPSIS Integrated Navigation and Bridge System (INBS) for the first vessel of the Brazilian Navy’s new Tamandaré-class frigate programme. Anschütz press release Tamandaré, the first of four ships built by SPE Águas Azuis at TKMS Estaleiro Brasil Sul in Itajaí, is scheduled to be incorporated early this year and marks an important milestone in one of Brazil’s most advanced naval shipbuilding programmes. Designed as a modern multi‑role frigate, the first Tamandaré-class vessel provides broad operational capability, ranging from maritime security and patrol duties to support for joint and international missions.
Its mission profile places high demands on navigational performance, operational availability and the ability to maintain situational awareness in complex maritime environments. The Anschütz SYNAPSIS INBS delivered for the frigate builds on standardised and globally proven navigation technologies. This approach supports high system reliability, streamlined maintenance and sustained operational readiness throughout the vessel’s life cycle.
