Tactical NAV: MGRS Navigation เวอร์ชั่น PC

Created to save military lives, Tactical NAV was the first MGRS-focused app on the App Store and is the only tactically-proven app commercially available today.

BACKGROUND:

Built from the ground up in the rugged mountains of eastern Afghanistan, Tactical NAV comes from the mind of a U.S. Army Field Artillery officer who had a vision of creating a low-cost and highly accurate mobile-navigation platform built specifically for military service members.

Tactical NAV's journey began in the notorious Pech River Valley of Kunar Province, Afghanistan.

U.S. Army Capt. Jonathan J. Springer, a Fire Support Officer with the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), who was on his third combat deployment, began developing the tactical-navigation platform following the memorial services for Spc. Blair D. Thompson and Spc. Jared C. Plunk, on June 25, 2010.

After pitching the idea and being turned away by the Department of Defense on multiple occasions, Captain Springer remained resolute in his mission to continue developing Tactical NAV — even to this day. His ultimate goals were (and still are) to make a difference for other Soldiers and honor the men and women who were killed and wounded in battle.

He ended up using his life savings to continue moving forward with the Tactical NAV project, all with the ultimate hope of saving military lives and helping his fellow service members accomplish their mission at home and abroad.

Tactical NAV officially launched on February 14, 2011.

MISSION:

Tactical NAV's mission is to provide military service members a low-cost, highly accurate, and exceedingly powerful mobile-tactical navigational solution.

VISION:

Our vision is to assist and support our nation's service members with their mobile navigational needs and further enable them to operate and win during Multi-Domain Operations (MDO).

BUILT FOR ACCURACY:

Tactical NAV's performance is on par with the AN/PSN 13 Defense Advanced GPS Receiver (DAGR), and it has the feedback to prove it.
