Kongsberg Seatex, a Kongsberg Maritime subsidiary and a global leader in the development and production of precision technology for marine applications, has announced the launch of a new generation of Blue Force (BF) Automatic Identification Systems (AIS), the AIS 300BF.

This AIS 300BF is tailor-made for vessels undertaking demanding coast guard,
anti-piracy, navy and border police operations. Simple to install and maintain, the Class A mobile station allows friendly forces to identify vessels, while restricting the transmission of their own AIS information.

The AIS 300BF supersedes the current AIS 200BF unit
