Capability profile
NGC Aerospace develops guidance, navigation and control algorithms, embedded flight software, simulation and autopilot functions for aerial, space and launch vehicles.
These describe the reviewed application scope, not confirmed deployments, released requirements or procurement eligibility.
CSA documents NGC satellite-control heritage on Proba-2. NGC also announced a rover-navigation and obstacle-detection role in the Canadensys-led lunar rover consortium in 2022; the launch date in that older announcement is not current flight confirmation.
Satellite, planetary and aerial GNC, simulation, verification and co-development are offered through scoped engineering engagements.
A technology readiness level is not established by the reviewed public sources.
No reviewed Mission area or released Defence need connection is currently published.
These records support this capability and its published Mission area and Defence need connections. A source count is not a count of independent confirmations.
