The phrase is a straightforward compound built from its constituent meanings: 'naval' (relating to the navy) + 'tactical' (for tactical/strategic use) + 'data' + 'system' yields a system for handling tactical data for naval operations. This adjective+noun composition follows ordinary English patterns and is cross-linguistically transparent, so a B1 learner who knows the component words can infer the overall meaning.
Etymology
The term naval tactical data system comes from a simple image: on naval ships a tactical system shows moving dots and other data that show friendly and enemy forces so officers can make quick decisions. That's why it means 'a shipboard system used for collecting, processing, and displaying tactical information to assist naval operations'.
