Four HAVELSAN Capabilities Successfully Complete NATO CWIX 2026 AV&V Testing
At NATO’s Coalition Warrior Interoperability eXploration, eXperimentation, eXamination, eXercise (CWIX), held annually in Poland, HAVELSAN successfully completed the Assurance Verification and Validation (AV&V) tests under the NATO certification process with four of its capabilities.
DOOB-HQ, KAPI, Embedded NONC2 ATA DLP, and successfully completed the dedicated AV&V tests conducted to verify their interoperability with the NATO Federated Mission Networking (FMN) specifications, thereby advancing within the NATO certification process.
During the CWIX Exercise, where the interoperability of national command and control information systems with NATO, Allied, and Partner Nation systems is tested, completing the AV&V tests against the FMN Spiral 4 specifications—an important prerequisite for participation in NATO missions conducted between 2025 and 2027—once again demonstrated the maturity and capability of HAVELSAN’s solutions.
HAVELSAN has been an active participant in the CWIX Exercise since 2012 with the capabilities it has developed. The company previously successfully completed AV&V testing with DOOB and KÂŞİF in 2019; ADVENT CMS and ADVENT MARTI in 2023; KARTAL and NONC2 ATA DLP in 2024; and DOOB-HQ, DOOB-TACTICAL, KÂŞİF, OCTOPUS, NONC2 ATA DLP, and TDLYM in 2025.
HAVELSAN Participated in the Exercise with 43 Personnel and 16 Systems
The CWIX 2026 Exercise, held between 6–26 June 2026, brought together more than 3,000 personnel, 780 systems, and representatives from 46 countries, including NATO Allies and European Union member states, across 20 capability focus areas.
HAVELSAN participated in the exercise with 43 personnel and 16 systems across the focus areas of MIP, TDL, MDC2, DM, COMMS, GEOMETOC, CBRN, FMNCS, AIR, MARITIME, M&S, and CYBER. The participating systems included ADVENT KALYON, ADVENT UFUK, ADVENT TALAY/REI, DOOB-HQ, DOOB-MOBILE, KÂŞİF, CBRN, OCTOPUS, KAPI, NONC2 ATA DLP, Embedded NONC2 ATA DLP, LYNX, I-SMART, FIVE, RTaaS, and ICS SENTINEL.
This year also marked the first participation of several HAVELSAN capabilities in new focus areas: LYNX and Embedded NONC2 ATA DLP in the AIR Focus Area, ADVENT TALAY/REI in the GEOMETOC Focus Area, KAPI in the FMN Core Services Focus Area, IC SENTINEL in the CYBER Focus Area, and FIVE in the Modeling&Simulation Focus Area.
Commenting on the achievement, HAVELSAN General Manager Dr. Mehmet Akif Nacar said:
“The successful completion of these AV&V tests further reinforces our long-standing expertise in developing NATO-compliant systems and ensuring interoperability. Following our expanded participation in the Multi-Domain Command and Control, Cyber, and Modeling&Simulation focus areas, we will continue this momentum by introducing AI-enabled Command and Control capabilities in the coming period. With a proactive approach, we remain committed to developing the capabilities required by the Turkish Armed Forces for modern warfare while delivering competitive solutions to the international market.”
