<p class="xxmsonormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">New advancements in quantum technologies look to provide significant improvements in capability for combat platforms in navies across the world. From communications systems to weapon targeting and navigation,
there are countless possibilities for enhancements and augmentation of current systems. Quantum radar and sensors offers the possibility to detect stealth platforms, above and below the water to allow more effective defence systems. Quantum encryption could
provide new levels of assurance for data and voice communications providing confidence to command and control elements from strategic hubs that transmitted messages are secure. A combination of sensors and highly precise quantum clocks will enable maritime
platforms to navigate with absolute confidence without the need for traditional space based global navigation satellite systems.
</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xxmsonormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">This talk will describe what a quantum enhanced warship of the future could look like and present the latest technological advancements from across the world. We may still many years of the matured physical
application of these technologies into platforms, but by considering the impact today we can outline the roadmap of development.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
