High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Naval Tactical Data System, commonly NTDS, refers to a computerized information processing system developed by the United States Navy in the 1950s and first deployed in the early 1960s for use in combat ships.Warships have rooms known as Combat Information Centers, or CICs. Until the advent of computers compact and robust enough to be used in ships at sea, collection and display of such information as the position of aircraft, ships, and submarines was done manually. NTDS was the United States Navy's first step in automating this information flow for use in attack or defense, to reduce the chance of error and to allow CICs to cope with a denser, faster-moving threat environment. With NTDS and wireless data links, ships could share the information gathered by their sensors with other ships in a task force. NTDS was the inspiration for the Aegis system now in use on Navy ships.
