National Engineer Week Spotlight As we celebrate National Engineers Week, we shine a spotlight on the engineers who play a vital role in safeguarding our nation's defense and propelling missions forward. Their dedication to developing reliable systems is indispensable, especially during critical moments. Although we are highlighting two remarkable engineers, we honor all our engineers for their unwavering commitment to our customers and their mission-focused support of our warfighters. It is through their relentless efforts that we bring these systems to life. Meet Rob Compton and Corinne Green, who will share their insights and engineering journeys. Thank you to all our engineers for your incredible contributions! What’s a breakthrough you’ve pursued at SFS, either big or small, that changed the way you think about what’s possible in engineering? I have a background in quantum sensing, which is a field that until recently has been dominated by Ph.D physicists working on table-top laboratory prototypes that are impractical and unfieldable. What has impressed me at Safran is how quickly we’ve been developing a robust, fieldable design for a quantum inertial sensor by leveraging decades of cumulative experience in mechanical, electrical, RF, optical, and systems engineering. In some ways, the quantum mechanics turns out to be the easy part, and it’s the traditional engineering disciplines where fresh innovation, hard work, and skilled engineering talent is very quickly bearing fruit for future game-changing products. When a system evolves or unexpected challenges arise, what helps you stay adaptable and guide the team toward a smart solution? When systems evolve or challenges come up, I stay adaptable by focusing on the fundamentals and maintaining a steady mindset. I’ve worked in environments where direction evolved mid-stream, timelines shifted, or priorities were reshuffled. In those moments, progress depended on moving forward where we could, pausing where it made sense, and staying comfortable with the idea that some work might change as plans matured. Navigating that kind of change required flexibility, communication, and the ability to separate personal attachment from technical direction. To me, adaptability means staying analytical, collaborative, and open to change so that evolving requirements become part of the engineering process rather than a disruption to it. Feeling inspired?

The interference threat information provided from a Controlled Reception Pattern Antenna (CRPA) combined with reliable PNT sources, such as the Safran VersaPNT and Geonyx systems, can deliver situational awareness information, such as the approximate position of interference threat sources. Home • PNT Library • Interference Threat Position Awareness Interference Threat Position Awareness DOWNLOAD PDF By Garrett Payne and Dylan Dayton Real-time interference detection for Situational Awareness (SA) The interference threat information provided from a Controlled Reception Pattern Antenna (CRPA) combined with reliable PNT sources, such as the Safran VersaPNT and Geonyx systems, can deliver situational awareness information, such as the approximate position of interference threat sources. A CRPA was integrated with a Geonyx system and tested operationally.. The CRPA, combined with the accurate heading of the Geonyx, proved to provide robust threat direction finding abilities. Technology Used CRPA Antenna A CRPA is a type of antenna system featuring multiple antenna elements designed to enhance the resilience and performance of Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers by mitigating interference VersaPNT The VersaPNT is a robust Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) solution and can be configured to use external PNT sensors and devices which include but are not limited to a CRPA. Geonyx The Geonyx is a land true-inertial navigation, target geolocation & artillery pointing system. CRPA Interface The interference direction-finding system utilized a Novatel GAJT-710 (7-element CRPA) for detecting interference and providing information on detected signals. The GAJT-710 provides interference detection on both GPS L1 and L2 bands and can detect up to 6 simultaneous threats per band. The system parsed the data feed from the CRPA to get information of detected interference and calculate relative directions to suspected threat emitters. Geonyx Interface The interference direction-finding system utilized a Geonyx system for providing position and heading data for absolute positioning. The VersaPNT has also been used to provide position and heading data, similar to the Geonyx. With knowledge of the absolute position and heading of the system, the absolute direction to detected interference can be calculated. The CRPA provides interference relative to antenna heading. Assuming the pointing angle between the CRPA and the Geonyx is known, the relative angles of interference can be converted to absolute angles. GUI Creation and Use The prototype UI shows the threat information detected from the CRPA in real time: • Signal strength, azimuth angle, and elevation angles are shown for detected threats on L1 and L2 bands. • Lines of bearing are calculated using the absolute position and heading from the Geonyx and can be shown on a map. Future Work The prototype ran on separate hardware, so the next step of integration will be to integrate directly on existing navigation/timing systems. Systems will directly intake the CRPA feed and use internal position and heading for calculating absolute bearing to threats. Threat lines of bearing will be shown on system WebUI and updated in real time. Algorithms will be developed and refined for calculating the absolute position of threats based upon lines of bearing. With enough system movement, the changes in lines of bearing over time can be used to detect the position of threat emitters. DOWNLOAD PDF

Veterans Day: Steven St. John What branch of the military did you serve in, and for how long? I served 22 years in the Air Force and Space Force, started as an enlisted member, and finished as a Major. What were your duties? I was a Satellite Operator, an Electronic Warfare Operator, a GNSS and SATCOM Aggressor, a Nuclear ICBM Officer, an Intelligence Analyst, and various held leadership positions. What inspired you to join the military? I wanted to serve my country and be part of missions that mattered. The chance to work worth amazing people and at the cutting edge of space, intelligence, and electronic warfare kept me motivated to stay. What does Veterans Day mean to you personally? It’s a day to honor the people I served with and the sacrifices they made. For me, it’s also about carrying forward the lessons of teamwork and resilience. What drew you to Safran? I knew Safran’s products from my time as an Aggressor on the buying side, and I saw firsthand how they could close real gaps for operators. I wanted to help bridge the gap between technology and warfighters, especially in replicating realistic NAVWAR threats. What skills or values from your service do you apply in your role here? I bring real‑world experience as an EW operator in conflict, creating GNSS‑denied environments and training joint forces how to operate through the effects, and an in-depth understanding how threats apply to our systems. I served in the Special Operations community, which is part of our end-user customer base, and I was the go‑to person for troubleshooting SOF systems in GNSS‑denied environments. I also bring credibility and relationships in the operational community that help connect Safran’s technology to real user needs. In your opinion, what do Veterans bring to the workplace? Veterans bring perspective from operating in tough, high‑stakes environments. We know how to adapt quickly, work as a team, and keep the mission in focus. We also bring instant rapport with our end-users because we walked in their shoes. What’s a memorable experience from your time in service? Flying out to the USS Ronald Reagan at sea, getting hooked, living onboard for five days, training sailors on GNSS and SATCOM jamming before their deployment and being catapulted off the carrier afterward…I’ll never forget how amazing it was to see the “lightbulb” come on when they understood the threat and how to mitigate it. Also, briefing the Secretary of the Air Force in his office on how our TTPs held up against real threats and feeling the passion he had for the lowest level warfighters. What’s your proudest accomplishment — either in or out of uniform? Building the Digital Threat Portal. I saw a serious gap, had almost no resources, and still found a way to deliver a capability to thousands of warfighters in just months and at no cost to the government. We had a great team that rallied around each other and the mission to get it out the door. One of our “Safran Together” values is Succeeding Together. How do you embody this in your role? I focus on connecting technology with operators, making sure their voices shape what we deliver so they come home safe. Success is never about one person, it’s about making the whole team, and ultimately the warfighter, stronger. Feeling inspired? Explore career opportunities at Safran Federal Systems CAREERS
