UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía tests flight control system at Norway’s Jammertest 2025

UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía tested its flight control solution for unmanned aircraft at Jammertest 2025 in Andøya, Norway, where the system faced various jamming and spoofing scenarios designed to interfere with navigation systems.

Norwegian authorities host the annual Jammertest event, which recreates jamming, spoofing and electronic warfare threats in a controlled environment. The test allows navigation experts to validate systems for civil and defense applications under realistic operational conditions.

During the week-long testing period, the UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía team subjected its guidance, navigation and control solution to multiple interference scenarios. These included partial GNSS disruptions, complete signal denial, spoofing attempts and jamming delivered at varying intensities and waveforms. The company’s VECTOR family of autopilots, combined with the Visual Navigation System VNS01, enabled the test aircraft to adapt to GNSS degradation, maintain flight stability and continue operations.

UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía has previously tested its flight control solution in contested environments, including evaluations against military Counter-UAS units. The company reports that customers operate the system in complex GNSS-denied environments.

The Norway trials provided performance data that will inform the development of VECTOR autopilots and the Visual Navigation System (VSN01). UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía states the data contributes to its development process for navigation technologies.

The test results demonstrate the system’s capability to operate in hostile environments, a requirement for both civil and defense applications where GNSS reliability may be compromised.
