Navy Ship Platforms, Combat Systems

Learning is doing. With every technical advance, the life and duty of sailors and officers gets that much more complex. The solution to delivering competent execution on complex systems under fire is simple – more and better training. With more than 150 years of supporting sailors and officers on ships, we know what it takes to perform on the sea and VT Group provides training, support and equipment to the U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard and the Royal Navy.

United States Coast Guard

VT Group has performed engineering design, installation and integration for the upgrade and modernization of many of the C4I systems and equipment in use by the U.S. Coast Guard.
