Fire Control Center - FCC

Unified situational awareness for coordinated long-range coastal strike operations.

The Fire Control Center (FCC) is the central command and control node in the NSM Coastal Defence System, responsible for planning, coordinating, and executing long‑range precision strike missions. It generates the Recognized Maritime Picture (RMP) or Common Operational Picture (COP) by fusing surveillance data from coastal radars, aircraft, naval units, satellites and tactical data links. This creates a unified situational awareness foundation for coastal defence operations.
