This in parallel with the RFA Fleetwide ECDIS upgrade, which included the Wave Class, MES were also contracted to refresh other aspects of the Bridge including Navigation radars and the addition of multi-function displays incorporating a dual redundant conning and instrumentation system*. The scope also included provision of specialist combat system interface units and a machinery space communications upgrade on RFA Wave Ruler. Both upgrades occurred one after the other in 2012.
