$34M to Conjure Up More Warlocks Against IEDs

Jun 29, 2005 03:08 UTC

EDO Communications and Countermeasures, Thousand Oaks, CA received a $34 million modification to a firm-fixed-price contract for Warlock Green and Red Electronic Countermeasure Devices. As DefenseTech.org reports:

“The Warlock radio frequency jammers are made by the New York and Simi Valley firm EDO. And they’re based on an earlier EDO product called the Shortstop Electronic Protection System, which is designed to protect troops against proximity-fused weapons like mortar rounds and artillery shells [by detonating them early]. The Warlock doesn’t do anything quite so dramatic. Instead, “it basically works by intercepting the signal sent from a remote location to the IED instructing it to detonate,” an Army official told Inside Defense (which has a wrap-up of all its recent IED stories here.) “The signal ‘cannot make contact, therefore when it can’t make contact it doesn’t detonate,’ much like a cellular phone call that does not connect, he added. “The cell phone never gets through, but [enemy forces] think it go through.”

LAIRCM

LAIRCM

In an earlier article, DID covered the LAIRCM system for protecting large transport aircraft from shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles. Now Northrop Grumman Systems Corp. in Rolling Meadows, IL is receiving a $68.6 million firm-fixed-price contract modification to provide for AAQ-24(V) LAIRCM system hardware as well as the associated system support, spares, training, and installation support for 12 Air National Guard, 9 Air Force Reserve Command, and 4 Federal Aviation Administration aircraft. Northrop Grumman will also provide AAQ-24(V) LAIRCM system hardware to field the LAIRCM Lite configuration for a trial install on an Air Mobility Command C-5B Galaxy aircraft.

Negotiations were completed May 2005, and work will be complete by June 2007. The Headquarters Aeronautical Systems Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, OH issued the contract (F33657-01-C-2093, P00080).

BAE Gets $6.9M in Research Funds to Neutralize Radars

May 03, 2005 04:01 UTC

BAE Systems Information and Electronic Warfare Systems in Nashua, NH, is being awarded a $6.9 million cost-plus fixed-fee contract to provide affordable technologies for “airspace buyback”. This actually involves detecting, locating, identifying, and jamming multiple advanced radars at long range. The idea is to create a receiver technology that will be retrofittable and transitionable to all current and future combat and support aircraft and helicopters with Radar Warning Receiver, Electronic Support Measures, Electronic Countermeasures, or Electronic Intelligence systems.

$9.7M more for Electronic Warfare Training

May 03, 2005 02:30 UTC

Airborne Tactical Advantage Co. in Newport News, VA received a $9.7 million ceiling-priced modification to a previously awarded firm-fixed-price, indefinite delivery, indefinite-quantity contract (N00019-02-D-3158), exercising an option for airborne threat simulation capabilities. These capabilities will be used to train shipboard and aircraft squadron weapon systems operators and aircrew to counter potential enemy Electronic Warfare (EW) and Electronic Attack (EA) operations by utilizing super and subsonic aircraft. Work will be performed in San Diego, CA (45%); Norfolk, VA (45%), and at various locations across the United States (10%); and is expected to be complete in April 2006. The Naval Air Systems Command in Patuxent River, Md. issued the contract. [DoD, April 28, 2005]

This contract is related to a similar recent contract to L3 Communication Flight International Aviation LLC in Newport News, VA, who received a $40.4 million modification that exercises an option for simulations that help ships and air squadrons train their crews to counter electronic warfare efforts by airborne targets (N00019-02-D-3157).
