BAE Systems helping Navy develop next-generation electronic warfare (EW) technologies

ARLINGTON, Va., 12 Oct. 2015. Electronic warfare (EW)experts at BAE Systems are developing a full-spectrum staring electronic support receiver (FSSR) with instantaneous direction finding (IDF) for potential use in next-generation Navy EW applications.

Officials of the Office of Naval Research (ONR) in Arlington, Va., announced an $11 million contract Thursday to the BAE Systems Electronic Systems segment in Nashua, N.H., as part of the ONR Electronic Warfare Technology program, which seeks to develop and demonstrate RF and microwave technologies for next-generation EW technologies.

BAE Systems engineers will design and demonstrate a full-spectrum staring electronic support receiver with instantaneous direction finding that capitalizes on emerging and innovative electronic and photonic component technologies into an end-to-end electronic warfare demonstration system......................................
