Raytheon UK to Supply Landshield Antennas for CV90 Vehicles to Boost GPS Resilience
Raytheon UK has secured a contract with BAE Systems to deliver its Landshield Plus anti-jam GPS antennas for use on CV90 infantry fighting vehicles, with deliveries slated between 2025 and 2029. The integrated Landshield system combines an antenna and anti-jamming processor into a single unit, enabling detection and mitigation of up to six jamming sources simultaneously across L1 and L2 GPS bands, the company said. The compact design and low power usage make it suitable for use across land, sea and air platforms, offering enhanced situational awareness in contested GPS environments.

U-blox Introduces Compact Triple-Band ANT-MB3 Antenna
Thalwil, Switzerland-based u-blox has launched the ANN-MB3, a triple-band (L1/L2/L5) RTK antenna optimized for its F20 platform and compatible with F9 receivers. The antenna features a notch filter for LTE B13 to suppress out-of-band interference and is designed for easy integration, reducing design complexity for customers working in harsh RF environments, the company said.
With dimensions of 62 × 80 × 25.5 mm, the ANN-MB3 addresses the demand from industries like industrial automation, agriculture, autonomous vehicles, mobile robotics and UAVs for centimeter-level GNSS positioning at scale. Engineering samples are expected to be available beginning in October 2025.

Telit Cinterion Introduces SE869eK5-DR Module With Untethered Dead Reckoning
Telit Cinterion has launched the SE869eK5-DR GNSS module, a dual-band, multi-constellation receiver built on the Airoha AG3335 chipset that includes untethered dead reckoning (UDR) to provide positioning even when satellite signals are lost due to interference, obstructions or jamming, the company said. The module supports both L1 and L5 frequency bands—and includes an integrated six-axis sensor, and allows differential GNSS for applications.
The sub-meter accuracy makes it useful for underground parking, tunnels, fleet management, and high-value asset tracking. Engineering validation samples are available now, with design validation units expected in November.

Garmin, Noonan Link Practice Data with On-Course Strategy in New Golf Integration
Garmin GRMN 0.23%↑ and golf-strategy app Noonan to allow Garmin’s users to import launch monitor data directly into Noonan’s digital caddie system without manual file transfers.
Using the Garmin Golf Premium API, the integration brings practice metrics from Garmin’s Approach R50 and R10 launch monitors into Noonan, where its Scattershot AI delivers personalized club-and-aim recommendations based on shot dispersion and distance, the company said. Garmin said this feature helps golfers turn range and practice sessions into smarter decision making on the course, with real-time strategy rather than post-round analysis.
