The project is called Quins and is intended to dramatically change the capabilities of military navigation & mdash; especially where GPS signal is not available or unreliable.

< P > Unlike traditional systems that depend on satellite data or external landmarks, Quins uses hypersensitive quantum sensors. They allow you to determine the coordinates, speed and orientation of the object solely by internal measurements. This opens new horizons for navigation in the conditions < p >Lockheed Martin's Vice -President, Dr. Valery Browning, said the company seeks to translate quantum development from the laboratory to real combat use, capable of solving the most relevant national security tasks. According to her, investments in quantum technologies will allow you to prepare in advance for future defense challenges.

< p > In the development of Quins are involved and sectoral partners Lockheed Martin. In particular, the Australian company Q-CTRL, known for its innovation in the field of quantum software. Earlier, Lockheed Martin invested in Q-Ctrl because of its LMVventures Venture Fund. Professor Michael Birchuk, CEO of Q-Ctrl, said that the combination of experience and readiness for Lockheed Martin makes them a perfect partner for introducing quantum solutions into real projects.

Together partners plan to create a reliable system capable of working in the most difficult conditions.

< P > In the first stage of the contract, the team will focus on testing and check the effectiveness of QUINS technology in practical military scenarios. This will determine its real capabilities and restrictions before larger implementation.

< P > Lockheed Martin does not hide its strategic course in innovation and advanced developments that will help the Pentagon adapt to new challenges. Quantum navigation can become one of the key directions of technological advantage of US defense complex in the coming years.
