The purpose of the study was to analyse ways to improve the efficiency and accuracy of interaction between optoelectronic systems (OES) and radar stations (RLS) on ships to improve anti-aircraft fire systems in self-defence zones. Various approaches were used approaches to analyse data integration, automate processes, and optimise communication between systems based on theoretical models and practical examples of interaction between ship systems. The study showed that the integration of OES surveillance with RLS on ships significantly increases the accuracy of target detection and the effectiveness of anti-aircraft fire systems in war zones. It was found that synchronisation of data with the OES and RLS provides faster identification of threats, especially in difficult weather conditions or with limited visibility. Data processing algorithms are analysed, which significantly improve noise filtering and the accuracy of recognising mines and other threats by improving methods for analysing signals and integrating information from various sensor systems. Automated control systems allow minimising the response time to threats, increasing the efficiency of actions. The study also found that automatic steering systems integrated with navigation and safety systems effectively reduced the risk of mine detonation through real-time manoeuvres. The methods used included dynamic positioning and automatic correction of the ship's course depending on data obtained from the OES and RLS. This contributed to a quick response to threats and increased the overall safety of ships in coastal areas. It was established that improving communication channels between systems reduces delays in data transmission, which contributes to a faster response to threats. It was found that the integration of automatic steering systems with navigation systems improves the ship’s manoeuvrability and reduces the likelihood of falling into mine threat zones. The analysis showed that an integrated approach to modernising the interaction between the OES and RLS allows creating a more stable and effective ship defence system in coastal zones. The practical significance of the research lies in the potential use of the findings for the development and implementation of modern integrated ship defence systems, which contribute to enhancing ship safety in challenging conditions
