据c4isrnet网1月5日报道
BAE系统公司1月5日宣布,赢得美海军400万美元新型“快速周转”射频对抗系统演示验证合同,用于P-8A“海神”飞机。
该系统作为安装在飞机上的轻型吊舱,将提高“海神”飞机自我保护能力。
该系统包括一个小型干扰机、一个高功率放大器和一个AN/AEL-55光纤拖曳诱饵,其干扰信号将导弹由飞机引导到拖曳式诱饵
公司宣布,从2021年初开始,将在约五个月时间内设计、研制、集成并交付系统,然后在“海神”飞机上进行两个月的飞行试验。
BAE wins Navy contract for ‘quick-turnaround’ electronic countermeasure
BAE Systems received a $4 million contract from the Navy for a “quick-turnaround” demonstration of a new radio frequency countermeasure system for the P-8A Poseidon aircraft.
The system will be a lightweight pod mounted to the aircraft that will add a new self-protection capability to the Poseidon, the company said in a Jan. 5 announcement.
The system consists of a small form factor jammer, a high-powered amplifier and the AN/ALE-55 Fiber-Optic Towed Decoy, BAE said. It jams signals to guide missiles away from the aircraft to the towed decoy.
“The ability to meet this unprecedented response time underscores our agility, focus on meeting customer needs, and our ultimate goal of protecting our war fighters,” said Don Davidson, director of the Advanced Compact Electronic Warfare Solutions product line at BAE Systems. “A process that used to take 18 to 24 months has been scaled to five or six months.”
BAE said it will design, build, integrate and ship the system in around five months followed by two months of flight testing on the Poseidon, beginning in early 2021. This rapid timeline stems from collaboration of small focus teams that developed an approach to the system’s mechanical parts, the company said.
