Jammer developed by BAE Systems FAST R&D team
Washington-BAE Systems has received R&D funding from the US Army for the development of advanced radar frequency jammer technology. The technology aims to improve the air survivability and mission efficiency of the US Army rotary wing aircraft and unmanned aerial system (UAS) by detecting and overcoming complex and unknown threats in electronic warfare. According to the contract, the R&D team of BAE Systems FAST Labs will develop technologies that allow adaptive radio frequency interference and detection functions to be integrated into the system. Although today's electronic countermeasure systems are too large and cumbersome for most rotating blades and UAS platforms, the BAE Systems technology combines multiple software programmable antennas into a digital phased array that can perform simultaneous functions , Better than the existing functions, while increasing the size and weight and reducing the performance of the current system (SWaP). The technology will...
